It is cloudy again today but will probably fine up. The alarm went off at 6.30am. I didn't sleep too well last night. We went for our breakfast and came back to the room to finalise a few things then went down to wait for the bus to take us to Universal Studios. The shuttle bus was coming at 9. Ruby arrived at 8.40 to go with us.
The bus drove us to the Flyer where we got a mini bus to Universal Studios. We arrived about 10.15 and it was hot.
We saw "Daddy O's" Hang Ten Hipsters
with the harmonising boys from the beach (a cute little 3 year old dancing and clapping in the crowd) and no show without punch when Sandra was asked to join in dancing. We also saw Mel's Dinettes Waitresses as they Shake, Rattle & Roll.
We went on Treasure Hunters (Desert Jeep) which was a jeep similar to Crusaders of the Lost Ark but it was really for children but 'us 3 big kids' had a ride but it only went for about 10 minutes. We went and saw 3 live shows. One was the Donkey Live from Shrek performing, another was Steven Speilbergs "WaterWorld of Lights, Camera, Action" - it was spooky but showed how movies are made from stunts and awesome explosions and the sensational live water show (where the front lot of people got wet), the last was Monster Rock where Henry Preston Jekyll transformed Universal Classic Monsters into Rock 'n Roll stars.
There were heaps of old cars all around the Studio. Police cars, taxis, ice cream vans, horse & buggy, etc.
After we had exhausted ourselves at Universal, we went over to Sentosa Island by train. We still haven't found the Island.
Colin came to get his Mum about 4pm. We had a quick look through the Arcade and walked back to our Hotel. Got some nibbles on our way back and we got back about 6 and boy, were we exhausted. We went out for our tea about 7.30 but we only went up the street. Jean and Sandra each had a pizza and I had chicken Caesar salad. It was really nice and the bill came to $S72 which included taxes.
I came back to the room about 9.30 and Jean and Sandra went shopping again. I had another shower and when Jean and Sandra came in and had their showers, I was in bed. We can have a sleep in tomorrow as nothing is planned.
