Universal Studio Sentosa, Singapore

Finally I had a chance to visit Universal Studio Singapore!  My office had a half day business planning and team building in Resort World, Universal Studio Singapore on Friday.  We fianlly survivied the half day business planning, not that the topic was boring, but the room was freezing!  It was bright and sunny outside, but we were all covered up in the room, drinking hot water to keep warm.  There was nothing special about the seminar rooms in Hard rock cafe hotel, the bonus was that they served TWG tea!  The Morocoon Mint Tea was really nice!

Lunch was at Starz Restaurant.  Your usual buffet spread, average, though the dessert corner was quite good, especially the Italian Gelato, Lime flavour :-)
Colourful Dessert:











Tickets to Universal Studio!! Yeah
Since this was a company event, we were randomlu splited into groups by picking letters from a bag.  My team is Team H, H stands for Heng Heng, Heninken, Hao! Heehee...Other than taking the rides, each team would need to answer 10 questions, such as how mnay dinos were their in the Dino Ride?  How many dips in the mummy ride?  Which means while we were screaming our heads off, we need to count!
Team Heng Heng



Our first ride was the Jurassic Park Rapids Adventure™ at the Lost World.  It was a water raft ride, and there was warning before we took the ride "Beware, you may get soaked"  We chose to ignore that, and did not purchase the poncho.  Guess what, we were all soaked!  I was wearning my wind breaker, so i was top was dry, but my pants were soaked. 


Far Far away land..Made you feel like you are in a fairy land..where dreams come true.







Dar Dar:  This was our winning photo..a photo with Diane!  No other teams managed to get this photo, and they suspected that after we took a photo with Diane, we killed it.
One of my colleague was also famous because of Diane.  This was because she innocently asked a question:
"Is this real"
So i answered "No"
Another colleague went "Did you just ask if a Dinosaur is real?!"
hahahhahaha

 Winning team taking a photo with our MD.
 Another shot with Kungfu panda before we leave.  Due to time, they did not allow single photo with Panda..Is ok, I will be back.

Verdict:  Not as magical as Disney, but overall still enjoyable..Will be back :-)
