Hard Rock! *YAY Baby!*

Pretended to be a tourist to Sentosa for a day. *LOL!* A bit "sua-ku", but we really didn't know our way around Sentosa. So much changes in such a short span of time.We alighted at the Imbiah Station and found a Sentosa Map in order to find directions to the Desperados and the Cineblast ride. A short walk and along the way took some pictures. As though we're really tourists and this is our 1st time here. *shaking head!*

 Snap a quick shot with the Merlion! :) Colorful parrots. They know how to strike a pose.

The Merlion statue, which I went up before! HAHAHAHA! But I remember not much view from the top either and there's a separate admission fee. Anyway, we found the directions and along the way saw this photo booth where there's lots of parrots hanging around. It's F.O.C to take photos with them and the crew also help to use your camera to snap a shot too.

We queued for 3 rides (main purpose of the trip): 

Desperados - Shooting game where you get to sit on a horseback and start shooting at the screen. Interesting because you'll be shaking around and holding the gun trying to aim at the bandits. But for 12 bucks? I don't think so. *LOL!*

Cineblast: Extreme Log ride - Sitting in a cabin (6 persons each) with a safety belt and a handler for you to hold on. Just imagine rushing through the deepest valleys, and flying through the air (with no sense of directions) and floating on the water with crocodiles in it. Yeah, that's about it, except you don't really need to hold on the handler because only the chair that you're sitting on is moving. (Try the Cylon and Human roller-coaster in USS and I tell you, that's what I called a real RIDE!)

4D Magix - A short movie with 4D effects. Lots of water spraying onto your 3D glasses. And those huge fan (use as dryer outside shopping malls when it's raining) hanging around the theater to create lots of wind which is so damn cold. I'm just wearing a short. I prefer the 4D Shrek in USS though. LOL! Anyway, it's free tickets from some Taiwanese tourists. They're in the rush for dinner so they decided not to waste it and let us watch the show for free. :) 

I think the highlights of the day is the dinner (no candlelight though) at the Starz Restaurant @ Hard Rock Hotel. HAHAHA! :)

The tables there are super long. You got to talk a bit louder across in order to hear what your partner is saying. -_-" Varieties are quite limited (a bit disappointed), and the Laksa is the only dish I thought of snapping a shot of.

In order to prove I am really at Hard Rock, 


Me and the H.U.G.E Guitar! ^_^!!!

Anyway, we didn't spend any money inside, except for the admission fee and also bought the 2 photos which we took with the Parrots! HAHAHA! -___-""

Long day, and it's back to a working week. I can't wait for the long weekend to come. I wanna get back my well deserved sleep!
