SINGAPORE TRIP | Day 2 - Universal Studio Singapore

WARNING: You will see a lot of SELFIE in this post!!!

... but I can't help it, I am a kids at heart and visiting Theme Parks brings back the little kid in me in an instant which is fun if you would ask me. (See my Hongkong Disneyland Trip here) 

Our itinerary for our second day in Singpore is Universal Studios, we allotted one whole day for this. LOL.

Excited as we were, we bought our tickets online before we leave Manila, and I've read in some blog that there could be no available tickets on the day of your visit so its best to purchase tickets in advance. We got our ticket for S$74.00 per ticket for a 1-day pass.

As soon as we entered the park my eyes wander around and saw this popcorn store which brings us to selfie No. 2

New York Street in Universal Studios Singapore
After meeting new friends in New York, we now move on to Sci-Fi City, which for me is the most exciting part of the park solely because of the "Transformers, The Ride". The ride is exciting, it feels like I'm in the real Transformer scene.

This for me is  most exciting part of the park
But Wait I have to have a Selfie No. 7 here.
and Selfie No. 8. With Bumblebee

After a very exciting experience with Sci-Fi City, we are in for another exciting part of the park, the Ancient Egypt. They also have a ride here called "The Revenge of the Mummy" Its a roller coaster in the dark with mummies and fireballs and I think beetles to scare you.

Before the ride, I had a Selfie with this guy for a Selfie No.9
After the ride, I met Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz, Selfie No.10
Moving on, we walk farther to the "Lost World" this is where the Water World is located where you can see death defying stunts, unfortunately they suspended the show the time we were there. Jurassic Park Rapids Adventure is also located in this part of the Park, we were not able to experience the ride because they suspended it as well, I heard because of the lightning, they suspended all outdoor rides, but Im not really sure.
WaterWorld
Next, we move farther to "Far Far Away" where we join Shrek and Princess Fiona in a fairy tale adventure in "Shrek 4-D Adventure"
The Castle of Far Far Away
Finally, we reach the Madagascar, if you like to "move it.. move it.." I mean if you like the movie Madagascar, this is the part of park is for you.

Selfie No. 11 is with Beetlejuice, scary but funny
Selfie No. 12: is with Minions 
The following pictures are from the parade.

One last Selfie with the most Photograph Icon in Universal Studio Singapore

SINGAPORE TRIP | Day 1 - Meeting the MERLION and other sights ofSingapore

We only have two days to tour Singapore, so after we checked-in at Fragrance Hotel - Rose, located in Balestier Road we immediately started our Singapore Tour.

On top our "To-Do-List" is to have a "Selfie" with the Mascot of Singapore, the Merlion. Located at One Fullerton Road near Singapore Central Business District, the Merlion is a statue with the body of a fish and the head of a lion

Selfie with the Merlion
Not very far from the Merlion Park are other Singapore Tourist attraction such as The Esplanade, Singapore Flyer, Singapore Art Science Museum, Marina Bay Sands and Gardens by the Bay.

Singapore sightseeing doesn't end as the sun sets, which by the way is late. As impressive as it is by day, Singapore literally shines at night. Most of the landmarks have a complete different look at night.
