Fun! Fun! Fun! Outing At Universal Studios Singapore

What a beautiful weather to start our day at Universal Studios Singapore. The kids were super duper excited. Non stop chattering on the way to Resorts World Sentosa.

We reached the themed park at 10.30am and I thought we will be done in 3 - 4 hours time, boy was I wrong about it. We were there from opening to closing because the children just keep going non stop.

The park was divided into 7 categories, namely : Hollywood, Madagascar, Far Far Away, The Lost World, Ancient Egypt, Sci-Fi City and New York.



Once entered into Universal Studios Singapore (USS), we step into the Hollywood world. We were right on time for the street performance by 'The Cruisers'. There was a 'Sesame Street Show' too.




Next we went to 'New York' and were greeted by another wonderful performance by 'The Rockafellas'.

'Sesame Street Spaghetti Space Chase' was fun too with the Sesame Street characters.

'Sci-Fi City' was a must for the adrenaline seekers as you get to queue for the 'Battlestar Galactica' ride. Definitely a no for my timid heart. By now the weather is getting a bit hazy, so out came our masks too.

Awesome fun ride at TRANSFORMERS The Ride : The Ultimate 3D Battle

'TRANSFORMERS The Ride' was awesome, awesome, awesome!
You are a Autobot tasked with protecting the Allspark from the Decepticons. The effects were awesome, you could feel the heat of the missile when it blows up!

Revenge of the Mummy at Universal Studios Singapore

'Ancient Egypt' mummies at the entrance were really huge. 'Revenge of the Mummy' indoor ride was scary for the children, because 3/4 of the ride was in the dark. It definitely felt like a loooong ride in the dark!

Treasure Hunters jeep ride at USS

Instead they queued up for the 'Treasure Hunters' jeep ride which in my opinion was pretty much nothing interesting. Don't bother to queue if it is a long queue.

At 'The Lost World' we miss the WaterWorld show as the kids were too hungry, so we had to stop for lunch. 

Friends having fun ride on Canopy Flyer at USS

 After lunch we did the 'Canopy Flyer'. We decided to do the Jurassic Park Rapids Adventure last as we were be getting wet from the ride.

Talking about lunch, you will not have any problem finding food in USS. If you find the price is too steep, you can actually request for a re-entry chop at the exit. So you can have lunch outside and re-enter the themed park again.

Fun ride at Puss in Boots Giant Journey for the kids

At 'Far Far Away' the children went onto 'Puss in Boots' Giant Journey ride. It was awesome and they had so much fun. 'Shrek 4-D Adventure was interesting and fun too. Remember to choose the moving seats in order to enjoy the 4-D effects. Oh and not forgetting the junior 'Enchanted Airways' roller coaster.

Fun day at Madagascar World at Universal Studio Singapore

Next up was 'Madagascar'. We went on a 'Madagascar : A Crate Adventure' river boat ride which was quite similar to Disneyland's 'Small Small World'. 

Fun, fun, fun at Jurassic Park Rapids Adventure at USS

Last but not least we went back to 'The Lost World' for the 'Jurassic Park Rapids Adventure' as we will definitely be wet or soaked. It will be good to bring along a poncho for this ride. But it was fun for the children to get wet after a long day hahahaha.

I wouldn't consider it a huge themed park, but it was sufficient to entertain family and friends. It would be good if USS can lower down their steep entrance fees. 

We had so much fun and enjoyment that the children didn't really want to leave so early at 6pm.

Family Fun at Adventure Cove Waterpark | Resorts World Sentosa Singapore

It was a beautiful sunny day to head out and have family fun. Thanks to a wonderful friend of ours, she gave us free admission tickets to the Adventure Cove Waterpark located at Resort World Sentosa.

To avoid the crowd, we reached Adventure Cove about 10.30am. There were 14 sections in the water theme park to explore. It was definitely a place for everyone regardless of age.

For a start there were lockers provided near the entrance of the park and near The Bay restaurant. It is highly recommended to store your personal belongings in the locker so that you can move around the park with ease and the lockers are able to relock several times by following the instructions on the system provided.

Ok by now the kids can't wait to start their adventures. First they went to the 'Dueling Racer', grabbed a racer mat and challenged each other on a competitive plunge from the top. 

It was so fun that the kids went over a few times since the queue was short. Do note that the height limit for this slide is 107cm and above.




Fun time at Adventure River in Adventure Cove Resort World Sentosa

After a few rounds of 'Dueling Racer', we headed to the 'Adventure River'. We grabbed a float and just drifted with the flow of the rippled river. The fun part of this river was that we could see many sights like the sting rays at the 'Ray Bay'. Sometimes if we were lucky, we could see dolphins swim past under us near the 'Dolphin Island'. 'Adventure River' has many entrances and exits, to allow you to hop in and out.

Family fun at Bluewater Bay in Adventure Cove Resort World Sentosa

Next we ventured over to the 'Bluewater Bay'. We were greeted by a huge wave pool. The kids were overjoyed when the waves started forming. The waves will start every 15 minutes, so there is no rush for this.

By now the children were super hungry. We walked towards 'The Bay Restaurant' and ordered some food for our starving stomachs. The restaurant had various selection of cuisine to suit everyone.

After a yummy lunch, we walked to 'Big Bucket Treehouse'. Over here, there was a huge bucket filling up and pouring over from the treehouse roof and smaller version of slides for the younger children. The children didn't stayed here too long as it was very crowded.
Friends having fun at Splashworks Adventure Cove

The kids were so excited as they approached 'Splashworks'. Here they had a chance to be like the Japan show 'Ninja Warriors'. They climbed ropes to ring the bell, balancing on beams, cliff jumps, crossing tight ropes. Do note that this section only opens at 12 noon. We had so much fun being ninja warriors and were so reluctant to leave this section.

By now the park was getting crowded with families and friends. The children had to skip a few sections as the queue was at least an hour long each. But they were happy to head back to the "Adventure River' and 'Bluewater Bay'.

'Riptide Rocket', 'Pipleline Plunge', 'Tidal Twister', 'Spiral Washout' were some of the sections for the adventurous at heart. For the toddlers, there is a 'Seahorse Hideaway' for them to have fun too.


Family fun day out at Rainbow Reef at Adventure Cove Resort World Sentosa

A must-do for any first time visitors. The 'Rainbow Reef' is filled up with 20,000 fishes, and it allows you to snorkel 1 round in the small reef. But mind you it is a long queue so start early if possible. We did that the last time so we decided to skip it and let the children enjoy the other parts of the park.

Dolphins having fun with trainers at Dolphin Island Resort World Sentosa

Before leaving the water theme park, we walked past 'Riptide Lounge' on the 2nd floor and managed to catch a glimpse of the trainers training the dolphins.

The children were all tired after having such great fun playing at Adventure Cove waterpark. We had a quick dinner and headed back for early rest.

4D3N Malacca Self Drive Holiday Trip 2014 ( Day 2 ) | Holiday Inn

Second day in Malacca. We started the day with a nice buffet breakfast in the hotel.

After breakfast, rested a while, we headed out to Melaka Wonderland. The weather was good to us. It wasn't as hot as the past few trips we came. As it was a weekday, the park wasn't crowded, so it was really enjoyable. We had so much fun on the rides like Tornado Chaser, Wave Rider, Crazy Slide and many more.

It was difficult to get the children to bathe and leave the fun Wonderland. Finally after 4 hours we left the water themed park and drove to AEON (Bandaraya Melaka) to start our shopping. 



We had late lunch at A&W. Root beer float and curly fries was a must when eating here. 

Afters hours of shopping at AEON, we had dinner at 'Row-Six' restaurant. Had the Assam Laksa and it was quite nice, spicy and sour to my liking.

Just by spending half a day at the water park, we can't really do much of other activities since shopping was part of the itinerary too. This ended our 2nd day in Malacca.

What do you like to do during a hot sunny day in Singapore. welovedayout was heading off for a fun wet day at Wild Wild Wet.
Wild Wild Wet located at Downtown East is a water theme park catered for all ages. There are various ticket packages available and promotions for ntuc plus cardholders too. For families who wants to hold birthday celebrations, the park has different package tiers too. It will be such fun for families and friends to gather in this park to celebrate birthday. During school weeks, the water park is closed on Tuesday for maintenace.

The park was pretty empty when we arrived at 10.30am. We were spoilt for choices at this amazing fun water park. There were rides like Ular-lah, Water Works, Tsunami, Shiok river (aka Lazy river), Slide Up and Torpedo for the courageous. Not forgetting the younger children the water park do have Yippee, Professor's Playground and the Jacuzzi too.

After spreading lots of sunscreen on ourselves, we ran towards Professor's Playground. Water guns shooting, shouting and laughter could be heard from overjoyed children.

Next we headed towards the higher level of slides which were Water Works and Ular-lah. Water Works slides consisted of both enclosed and uncovered. The children tested out the slides and all thumbs up for the enclosed slide as they felt it was faster.



Tsunami was nearby so we decided to pop over. We had so much fun at Tsunami when the big waves started. Children were having a hilarious time here. Huge floats were seen bopping up and down along with the waves (hint : good to wear life jacket for floating so that you will not feel tired trying to float with no aid)


Our yummy pack lunch for the day
Food & Beverage area and our yummy lunch
After Tsunami we were so hungry, we decided to stop for lunch. There was a Food & Beverage corner available. Since we had prepared lunch, we rested under the huge umbrella and started eating.

By now the crowd started coming into the water park. More tourists and children were seen as this was school holiday week. Families gathered at the park for a fantastic fun day out.


Adrenaline fun ride at Ular-lah

After our lunch break, we went to have a try at Ular-lah. It was the first raft slide in Southeast Asia and definitely for the adrenaline seekers. We had so much fun screaming and laughing as the raft went down the slide. We felt like we were doing water rafting in a river.

After the adrenaline rush, we went to the jacuzzi for a rest. It was a quick rest before we grabbed our floats and ran towards Shiok River (aka Lazy River). Here we just followed the flow of the river, calming oursleves down for the day.

After a well spent day at Wild Wild Wet, we were all very tired. We had a wonderful fun day out at this amazing water theme park and we promised to come back again. Below are some suggestions when heading to Wild Wild Wet and we hope that families and friends will enjoy this water theme park as much as we did.
