Universal Studio Singapore Trip : Part 1

After more than one month of silence... i would like to update this blog of mine..sorry...:)..
Actually the trip was way back at the end of January (26th January to be exact) but i didn't have the time to update it here..even my third baby was not even there yet...hahha..so now it is.... it was organised by the my hubby's colleague so we joined by paying around RM550 included the entry ticket to the Universal Studio Singapore and the transport (bus).. We departed around 5 a.m from MPOB Keratong Staffquarters...... There was a misunderstanding about the time of departure as we were told we will leave at midnight but the bus came late.... well...fortunately everything went pretty smooth except for one incident (no need to tell ya!!) after that.....

After went through strict immigration checking from the Singapore part, we managed to arrive at USS at noon....sadly .we have wasted few hours there due to unavoidable problem....
cam-whoring while waiting for the correspondent to take the entry tickets...
If u have been here before...u must have known that this theme park was divided into few sections namely Madagascar, Far-Far away, The Lost World, Ancient Egypt, Sci-Fi City, New York and Hollywood...it was more or less named after the famous movies made by universal studios, right?? it looked like, at least to me, the theme park was designed in an oval form so that you would not miss any section without going pass them....our fun and adventure journey began with Madagascar...

We tried the water boat ride (Madagascar: A crate Adventure)..it was slow and safe ride for young children... there were not many rides or activities for young children..mostly they were designed for older children and adults...so if you plan to come here, it will be  best not to bring children under 5...or wait till they get a little older...if not..you will miss the chance getting into all sorts of fun the offered but babysit your children..like me....(sob...sob...) unless you bring your nanny along...
Madagascar: A crate Adventure - A river boat ride with state-of-the-art animatronics, digital projection and surround sound, all housed within the hull of a displaced cargo ship.

King Julien's Beach Party-Go-Round - A merry-go-round ride that is themed and decorated with all the characters of Madagascar.... and also the famous building of the far-far away land...
Next, we moved to the far-far away land where we experienced to watch two exciting and amazing shows (donkey live-An interactive live show using digital puppetery technology, which features Donkey entertaining and engaging guests in conversation in an intimate theatre setting and Shrek's 4-D adventure - A 3-D stereoscopic show with added physical effects that is based on the story of Shrek and his quest to save Princess Fiona). These were the best i experienced along my trip there!!!! 

There were so many mascots along the way, but my children easily get intimidated by them so i did not put any effort to take pics with them...see..i've told you...wait till the children a little bit older..

And another piece of advice.. if u plan to bring younger children..do bring your stroller....the theme park distance  is way beyond younger children walking capabilities....here is the proof..

after been walking quite a distance, they even throw tantrums....
 Well, I bet this is too much of a story in a post... so stay tune for this trip part 2!!!!
