Sentosa

Spent a whole day at Sentosa today.
Its a long time since I last went there. Today I went with summer. Reached there at about 2pm we went to the beach. Its a nice sunny day but there was a really cooling sea breeze at the small isle off the beach. Nice view looking at the sea too.
Then we end and took a chair ride. Its like a cable car ride except that there is not cabin to go into. Just the bench to sit on, there is not even a place to rest your feet… I was worried that my slipper will fall.. Quite scary… The ride took about 10 minutes but then there was a frightening stop just when we can see the destination… That was scary. I was afraid that the machine broke down… however, it was a false alarm. The ride resumed briefly.
Actually we wanted to talk the monorail but then we did not know that the service has been shut down. That was a major disappointment.
We took the blue line bus many times and finally decided to explore the nature trail. Its a really short walk but there was mosquitoes ambushing us along the way. I escaped almost unharmed but summer had 3 or 4 red patches on her legs after we came out alive from the walk.
Next, its back to the beach again. This time, we sit at the break water. I had a relaxing nap there. The view from there toward Sentosa, in the setting sun is breath-taking.
Finally, we went to the musical fountain. The show is the same as the one I saw the last time I came. Nevertheless, the fire and the display of laser and water amazed me.
We left the island tired but happy.
Ok I miss the sun. Shall go swimming tomorrow. ![]()
