Universal studios outing

Had a friend coming from Australia last week, thus the natural thing to do is to bring him to Universal studios, Singapore. It was very fun! Went there with my cousin (C) and Aussie fren (AF).

Here is a picture of universal studios store... Very well equipped with souvenirs!



Look at their cute red uniforms! Staff at USS wearing red uniform like toy soldiers! Is it fun to work there? Well, u can ask them! Haha!


Probably will take quite a while loading pictures while I type. I guess these picture are not photoshopped at all... simply becoz I am not pro. If I am pro, then you can tell right?:p

Anyway, we went to take lots of pictures all around the place. Was like in some fairytale land... There was also a merry-go-round for kids! I believe when baby grows up, he will love the place too!

The dense tropical jungle: Magadascar theme park was not ready, as well as some rides that closed down like Battlestar glactica (BSG) due to repair and maintenance...But anyway, there were still other rides out there! Heard the BSG was one of the main attractions there...There is a $10 food voucher and $5 retail voucher, which is like a promotional thing, given at the entrance when you buy the tickets there. The ticket was $66 for adults. No student price tickets though.



In case u are wondering, that's my cousin in the above picture.:)

We first went to the land of the far far away action! Shrek themepark!!! It was exciting becoz you have no idea what you are going to encounter in the theatre! Well, really enjoyed the 4D adventure show. Show is partly on how to save princess in the show! No picture taking allowed in the theatre. So no photos!

Then we went to the adrenalin pumping action at Jurassic park water theme ride! Its feature is a white water rafting system, where you will be tossed on waterways and dinos roam there! Many people who went for the ride was so entirely drenched! AF had to go buy a shirt to wear becoz he didnt like wearing a wet T-shirt all around! Haha! Well, he had a really good choice of choosing a white T-shirt becoz white reflect heat! Thus it will be cooler to wear compared to a black T-shirt! (IMHO)

We went for the Waterworld show after that. Waterworld is based on a blockbuster movie, known to have death-defying stunts! Queued probably like 15 min, which was not so bad. We got splashed with water in the area as we were sitting in the "Splash zone". There is a splash zone and a soak zone and other non-wet areas as well. I wore my raincoat there as I was a bit sick of being drenched already..haha! That worked! Kept me quite dry! :P This is how waterworld looks like! Lots of water! Haha! The team that staged the production is probably from overseas as they had non-Singaporean accents. Anyway it is exciting to watch them chasing one another and using speed boats and stuff.




We went to have lunch after that... Can u imagine?? Half a day was gone! So fast!

Anyway, time for bed... I just had exam in the morning and here I am! Blogging! Could I be more hardworking after a long day? haha! Are you tempted to go to Universal studios already?

Hope you enjoyed this post! More posts about USS coming up soon! :D
