Sentosa Flowers ~ Spring Wonderland

Sentosa is having its annual flowers show & a new broadwalk was recently unveiled to the public... Had visited its previous years' flowers show & was curious what's in stall this round! Hence, being the 3rd day of the CNY today.... I met up wif Ruby, BL, SH & YX to visit Sentosa together! Since one of the gals was late, we only started our stroll under the hot afternoon sun past 2pm! I was keeping my fingers cross for a sunny day thou! So we could do some photography :)

3 of us had our dslr, while BL & SH were not into photography... We got spilt up after walking abit of the broadwalk... as we the photography enthusiasts needed some time to gather our focal points, haha! The design of the broadwalk was good! There's a sheltered area wif travelator where visitors wif tired feets could get 'moved' automatically... Along the way, the festive blooms were lined...  Later, we caught sight of the 2 gals...ah, they were lining up for ice-cream! At the island's entry point, we could easily tap our Ez-link card to pay the $1 admission fee.... great!

Upon entering Sentosa, this area was a particularly new one to us... as it's the other end of Resorts World! There were a lack of signage pointing to the Sentosa Flowers & we finally found our directions after checking wif the staff. Thou already in the 3rd day of the exhibition, the island was still packed wif throngs of visitors & tourists. Trying to take photos was indeed a challenge!

As we walked to RWS, we saw the Chinese Zodiac ~ 12 animals designed into topiary. Walking thru' RWS, towards the Merlion... spelt the way to the main flower show. The Zodiac Spring Rabbit was the first to greet visitors, sitting right in front of the Merlion. Next, we saw this colourful bird design created by a myriad of flowers.  At each photo-point, throngs of visitors were lining up for their photoshoots! It's really tough to snap the pics without people!

Then, at the Giant Tulips area... I'm more keen in the real tulips, haha! They were a pretty sight! But due to our warm climate, I noticed that the plants were fighting for their survival! Glad that i managed to capture a nice shot here.  We moved along wif the flow of the crowd to the Images of Singapore area & saw Easter Eggs & Bunnies...  A quick check of the map showed that we needed to re-trace our steps to the other side... to see the last few exhibits. I wanted to take a shot of the Valentine Day's rabbits, this gotta be the hottest spot! The Q was extremely long & I got to make a quick shot!

Finally, as we walked thru' Carrot Land... the grey skies gave way to a heavy rain! We were so lucky as shelter was juz 2 steps away! Another great part was....BL & SH were seated at the Coffee Bean & hence all of us had seats to rest our tired feets! Was so hungry by now & I got a treat fr Ruby ~ we shared a slice of yummy cheesecake! After an hour plus, the rain stopped & it's so cooling now! Fantastic! 5 of us took a sunset stroll along Siloso Beach... 

Lastly, we boarded the free shuttle back to Harbourfront & dined at Kim Gary HK Cafe. The evening breezed thru' as we had a great time talking rot & laughed alot over dinner...
