Singapore...part 2

7. Ancient Egypy - where a Space Mountain-like ride is to be found. You end up riding a fast speed roller coaster in total darkness (almost) and since I was seated at the end of the coaster, I expected a 'mummy" to just grab me during the ride (which of course never happened)


So was it worth spending that much to go to Universal Studios Singapore...yes, it was worth every penny since I had a fabulous time with my cousin Carol and good friend Kim. Will i go back again...probably not until all the rides/attractions are complete and running.


So what else is there to do in Singapore? Shop til you drop! The latest shopping center along Orchard Road is 313 Sommerset or you can go to Ion where luxury brands abound

If you are a bargain hunter like me, then go to IMM in Jurong East. This mall is a bit far but the MRT will take you there...plus they have shuttle buses to the Jurong East station if walking from the station to the mall is not your thing. They have outlet shops here for Samsonite, New Balance, Esprit, Timberland, Cotton On, etc etc. Prices are definitely lower than the stores along Orchard Road but be stocks are probably of last season's.

If you're into electronics, gadgets, computer stuff, then head on to Funan Center located at the City Hall station. I recommend getting a Challenger member's card valid for two years (SGD 30 or Php 990) if you spend a lot on gadgets since this will save you a lot of money in the long run.

Also visit the Singapore Art Museum from time to time as they may offer free entrance is one is lucky.
