Shots of Life

I don’t know anyone who hasn't dream of going to Universal Studios. I've been to Singapore 3 times and this was the only time that I have paid a visit this wonderful amusement park. Our Day 2 started early. We were done preparing and eating our mini breakfast as early as 830 in the morning. We arrived at the park before 10am. Haha.. Abang sa opening! Of course, we can't afford to lose a chance of trying every ride we see. We had a lot of pictures at the famous Universal Studios globe! Haha. We had a hard time capturing the whole "Universal" word and the place is getting a bit crowded. Dati sa picture ko lang yan nakikita, ngayon may picture na ako nian :p.
Near the entrance was the Hollywood. While roaming around the area, we saw a queue for Disney Character picture taking. Haha. The first star we spotted: Di ko kilala :p

One of them pointed us to the Discovery Food Court at the Lost World area. It wasn't open then but the manager or head waiter (not sure) told us that we can wait inside the place.
Boyps and I had Laksa + Balls + Jelly lychee for lunch. The laksa was really delicious, flavorful and tangy. The coconut milk taste was very evident. Super sarap talaga! We ordered 2 huge sodas for more sugar as we really need energy for our whole day activity. Haha.
 These balls were just okay. It looks like a squid ball inside. Its sauce was a bit spicy.
First stop: Far Far Away. It's Shrek's world. We watched a 4d short film. It was fun and full of surprises. Hihi. I thought it was boring after entering because there were just displays and puppets telling stories. But after that short story telling, doors opened for the main show. It was a huge movie house with no marks with what was about to happen. Haha. Moving chairs + 3D film + props made us enjoy so much! It was indeed a good start.
After film watching, next stop was the King Julien's Beach Party Go Round. Yes, we rode a carousel. Haha. It was as if we were kids again. Explore Madagascar area to try this ride.
 We spotted the Madagascar casts too but sadly, I don't have photos with them. :(
Madagascar. Not much excitement in this ride but still not boring. It was like riding in a boat with attractions along the way. If you've seen the movie, you'll be seeing packaging boxes where animals were placed. It was a bit exciting near the exit because there was a fountain in our way and it's not stopping! But not until we were close enough in it and it stopped. Haha. So we're safe. Hihi.
Lights, Camera, Action. This was such a great attraction at New York area. It showed what is usually seen in a Steven Spielberg film - winds, typhoons, burning buildings and a lot more. It's more of an experience of what it feels like to be part of a movie – water splashes and moving platforms, heat from fire. Suspense it is. Hihi.
 These cute guys performed too. Cool.

Treasure Hunters This was the most boring ride we have ever tried considering that we lined up for more than 30 minutes. We rode this dessert type vehicle and it roam around its track. There were attractions but it weren't attractive. Haha. Boring is all I can say. If you want to try this, go visit the Ancient Egypt section.
 The only consolation was this. Parang tanaw ko Disneyland :p
Before heading to our next stop, we bought nachos. It was crispy and tasty and the cheese was generously served.
Canopy Flyer. This was I guess the most extreme ride we had. Haha. It was like a mini rollercoaster ride minus the ups and downs and the loops. I was excited and frightened at the same time since we are seated backwards and we are not seeing the track. This attraction can be found in the Lost World section of the park.
Another kiddie ride we tried was the Dino-Soarin. This allowed us to control the flight of the creature - we go up and down. Haha.

Transformers. We passed by the Sci-Fi City more than once but we all decided to make this our finale. Super fun fun fun ride! I really had fun here. We even tried to figure out how everything was done. The place looks so small but the moment the "car" moved, it was as if the setting was big. This was the coolest ride ever! Hahahaha. It was actually like Shrek 4D but this one was more extreme. The car moves almost everywhere. Nicely done effects. Perfect. We went back here 3 times if I remember it right. I super love Bee! :D
