Beauty of the buildings & designs... Looks a like in the movie that we watch... Gorgeous ! We are like kids running around in park, snapping & posing for pictures.. Happy & wonderful moment... =)

Honestly, I did not know what is this called.. But on what I notice, I think they are lizards.. Monster Lizard? Herm... Maybe? @.@
Attractive kiosk located at Sci Fi City
One of the main attraction in Universal Studios Singapore is Battlestar Galactica : HUMAN or CYLON- the world's tallest pair of dueling roller-coasters ! As listed in Sentosa website, the attraction will asks rider to choose either Human or Cylon side & experiences it. Cylon side is called The Cylon Rider is a suspended roller coaster that will turn your world upside down ! On the other side called The Human Viper Mark II is a seated roller coaster that zooms at 90km/h ! Both riders will experience unbelievable thrills as they twist, turn & narrowly avoid collision. Imagine how scary is this "technology" ! @.@
Well, I'm definitely not in.... But during our visit, it closed. As informed, will be open soon before Chinese New Year 2011.
Another attractive kiosk located just below the giant roller coaster.
Next theme : Ancient Egypt
Funny pose by me.... Hehe... =P
See their legs.....
Kiosk at Ancient Egypt
Revenge of The Mummy ride is another scary "technology" that have been created. Almost died in there. Imagine yourself. A high speed indoor roller coaster & all the way is totally dark ! No light at all & no clue what will happen next ! Most scary is this machine will know how to REVERSE ! A high speed reverse roller coasters & fall down after the fast reverse ! Totally unexpected movement by this machines ! I swear, I won't go in there again.... SWEAR !
Another attraction in Ancient Egypt. Treasure Hunters. Suits for young hunters. I mean kids. =)
Lost World
Kiosk at Lost World
Purposely ask him to stand there for pictures before the water out.. Kena tipu ! Haha... =P
There is another ride in Jurassic Park called Jurassic Park Rapids Adventures which is outdoor river raft ride. In this stage, confirm you will get wet. If possible, bring extra cloths. You can purchase their rain cloth just for $2 in any merchandise corner available but is useless for us. After the ride, we still have to change cloth. So that's why we take the ride is almost end of the day... We are SMART too... =P
Sorry for no pictures on the ride. Forgot to take. =P
Next : Far Far Away
Shrek 4-D Adventure - indoor 4D film experience
Shrek swamp
Donkey Live - indoor live interactive show by Donkey

After Madagascar, heading down to Hollywood & have our meal at Mel's Drive In. With $10 dining voucher, overall bill is reasonable & very fulling ! =)
Restore our energy, is time for merchandiser corner & already evening time. In Hollywood, closing time is 10 pm but in others theme, closing time is 7 pm. Manage to grab something in Madagascar & Lost World theme before they closed. =)
Actually before we planned Singapore trip, we are been informed that there will be a fireworks show in Universal Studios Singapore during Christmas Eve. That's why we are purposely entered during these day & we are assuming there will be a lot people but so far all the game that we had played & enjoyed was run smoothly all day long. Besides that, I been informed that Universal Studios Singapore only limit 100 visitors per day. Is that true? I'm not sure...
Universal Studios Christmas tree....
The crowd
Snapping some pictures before exit.... I wish the time passes not that fast... =(
