This post is coming in late. I have too much on my plate this month as Adam is on night shift and would sleep in the day. Also, my little girl is growing smarter each day and most times this is tough to deal with. She doesn't agree with me a lot! She has recently picked up this habit of changing the topic when she is put in the hot seat! Anyway, I'll save that for another post.
So our last day of touring Singapore was spent at Universal Studios. I have been to Universal Studios in the U.S. twice; even though the one in Singapore is smaller we still had a great time. We always have a great time bringing Bean with us during travels even if this means Adam and I can't do plenty of things together, even if it means carrying or chasing around a toddler all day long. I think the we really want to be hands-on parents hoping that we are giving her all the love, care and guidance that we have.
Anyway, Bean had a blast! Mostly in the section of the theme park where the "Madagascar" cartoon was featured. It was my first time to ride a roller-coaster, too! So this was a life-changing experience for me! Personally, I like how they designed the area for "The Mummy." It did look a lot like Egypt and I had a blast taking pictures. There were so many things more, and these are the few shots I took. There aren't a lot because of mommy duties; but this is definitely one for the books!
I have a weakness for theme park souvenirs! Good thing
I do not have a lot of cash so that I do not hoard these!
Uhm...yeah...
She has this fascination with maps. Recently she asked us to buy her a world map.
Trivia:
She asked us where Bali is located. And she knows where it is by heart.
I have also taught her where North and South America are, where Africa, Asia, Australia, Europe and Antarctica are found. Then I also pointed out countries she has been to other that Bali...which
are: Hong Kong, Cambodia and Singapore. Now she knows all these if you ask her; she'll get a pen to mark them on the map.
Adam taught her where the Philippines is and told her this is our home...to which she
insisted: "No! Bali! Bali is our home! Can we buy tickets now so we can go?"
This confirms that it isn't only Adam and I who fell in love with that place;
she did too.
This also confirms that this might be an annual thing.
This carousel ride made her the happiest girl that day! And us. the happiest parents.
Mother dear.
I always dreamed of going to Egypt; but this is the closest I can get!
We got these matching bracelets which she religiously asks to put on everyday,
"so we won't get lost, mommy," she says.
Most people said it's not worth it to visit this place...that it's too expensive for what it has to offer...but we did have a good time. For me, it is worth going to if ever you're in Singapore. This wraps up our trip because the next day was all preparation for our flight back home to Manila.
