Sentosa Flower 2007

This is the Fourth day of the CNY, where most children are back to schools and most of the people are back to work. Larry and I decided to visit Sentosa Flower 2007 today, “hoping” to be immersed in the smell of beautiful flowers, and to sing a tune or two of the nursery rhymes we will get to see to our precious tot!

Visiting Sentosa is so convenient today! There are so many avenues you could choose to take you to that little island, where white sandy beaches and interesting attractions await you. From cars to buses, you could also try the exhilarating cable car rides to Sentosa. For us, we choose to take the train from Vivo City to Sentosa! This is a brand new connection between Vivo City and Sentosa, and the short ride was so nice and very comfortable. We get a nice scenic view of the island, the Merlion, Ho-Ching Junks bunkering by the jetty, and of course, the largest shopping mall in town now, Vivo City, when we were in the train!

Currently, there were only two stations open to the public for boarding and alighting at the Sentosa Island. We reached our destination with less than 5 minutes ride and there was a great display of wonderfully smelling flowers awaits us when we were at the station! We saw Humpty-Dumpty sitting on a wall with an entourage of the King’s men and horses, trying to put him back. There were also many other characters from the nursery rhymes on display too! Little Beatrice was bewildered by the numerous pigs she saw! There are pig EVERYWHERE! ** I am imaging ** If she knows how to talk, she might asked “Mommy, why are there so many pigs!” heehee ...

Actually, we had just started with the “This Little Pig” nursery rhyme with her two weeks ago, and she was so excited when she narrator the rhyme to her!! The showcase of different flowers and the arrangement was great! We will visit Sentosa again next year for the Annual Sentosa Flower Display!! Do join us too come 2008 =D

“This Little Pig” Nursery Rhyme
This little pig went to market
This little pig stayed at home
This little pig had roast beef
This little pig had none
This little pig cried “‘ wee wee wee” all the way home
