Exploring Resort World

Running out of places to go recently. Gal was suggesting to go to Resort World since we have not been there before. Decide to bring my dslr out to practice taking photos with it.

Seems like everytime when i decide to bring my dslr out, it'll rain. And today was no different. As i seriously in need to practice time before my BKK trip, decided to bring it out despite the rain. Actually brought along my LX3 too as a back up.


Arriving at the entrance of the Resort World Via Bus RWS 8 from Vivo. Round trip for $2, inclusive of entrance fee to Sentosa. Seems like the cheapest mode of transport to Sentosa other than car pooling.

Chance upon free Resort World Membership booth while exploring the main atrium and sign up for it. Great members rate for hotel bookings, discounts for shopping and dining, and free tickets to Universal Studios (provided you enter the casino !).

The membership registration comes with a free can of sweets that looks like casino chips to us at first look.



Stunning Lambo at the entrance of the casino. 2 winners have hit the jackpot but both opted for $600,000 cash instead. Guessed I would chose cash too over the sports car.



Not sure what is the name of the statue. An apple was spotted at the foot of the lady's statue. Or is this Adam and Eve? hmmm ..... i guess not .....



Did not purchase tickets to the Universal Studios. Wanted to wait for all the attractions to be open before considering going. Anyway, there is an ongoing promotion, $2 entry during Thur to Sat, from 7pm to 10 pm. Guess this $2 entry does not include the rides? Tickets was already sold out when we were thinking if we should join the long queue.

Hershey's Chocolate World

I love Reese's Peanut Buttercups !!

Garrett Popcorn shop !!!!
One of the nicest popcorn so far !



Gone in 60 seconds ?? The small packet looks big and it cost $6. The price is almost similar to Cathay's but this is definitely much more delicious. Trying a self-taken shot using 550D. Tough job especially with long lens and heavy weight !!!



Chicago Mix Popcorn !!
A mixture of cheesy popcorn and carmel popcorn

Another self taken shots. Trying to fit both of us into the picture. Need more practice to get the hang of the angle and weight of the cam. Time seems to have stopped at this moment.

Whenever there's a fountain, there will be children (^_^)

While we are back at Vivo, happen to past by the atrium area and there is an tourism exhibition on Bangkok. Grab some brouches and just nice for our itinerery planning.

Had our dinner at Food Republic food court before heading back home. Completed a day's shooting with my dslr, trying very hard not to use my LX3 throughout. I certainly need more shooting experience with the dslr.

I wonder will i ever master the dslr ......
