Wild Wild Wet Singapore in Pasir Ris is a fun place for family and kids. Mrupupup got to try out so many new water rides. Wild Wild Wet is one big place for all fun things involving water. Mrupupup sat on a dinghy tube to slide down a darken tube tunnel, slide down horizontally in a tube, sat in a big family type of dinghy to go down and waited for the big waves at the Tsunami. Really fun day! Think the most crazy ride was one whereby two person slide down 'Viking' style - up and down - really like a 2 storey drop. If mrupupup was tired out, one just sit back and relax on a dinghy in the river canal - realy so nice! Wild Wild Wet ! Really fun. Admission fee $19 per person, family I think $60. Got discounts for some cards (like NTUC). Whooopeee! Too bad hard to take picture while slding in water. Mrupupup just took picture of some kids near to the Wild Wild Wet sign.

Mrupupup did two videos on Katong Park in Singapore. Katong Park used to be a small fort to defend against the enemies of Singapore. Katong Park also used to be a popular playground for the people living in the east. Now, Katong Park is a small park and very peaceful place amidst the hustle of urban Singapore. In Katong Park, there stands a Rainbow Gum Tree from Papua New Guinea. This Rainbow Gum Tree gets its name because of the colourful bark of the tree and is a Heritage Tree in Singapore. Katong Park is a tranquil park and very nice for people to take a stroll. Enjoy the two videos made by Mrupupup.

Yeah! Singapore Food Festival (SFF) 2012 is back and will be on till 22 July 2012. Do check out the SFF village at Marina Bay area (next to Marina Bay Sands). This year the tentage was big and there were many food stores to choose from. Mrupupup took many pictures of the food stalls selling food items like BBQ squid, otah, candy floss, and many more. Mrupupup feasted on the local food dishes offered at the SFF and enjoyed Hokkien mee, satay and BBQ Squid. Mrupupup was very fascinated at how BBQ Squid was cooked and took extra pictures of the process. All the dishes at SFF were very nice. The prices of the food dishes are not cheap as compared to getting these local dishes at the hawker centre. Enjoy the Singapore Food Festival and try out all the local food. Check out the SFF photos and have fun if you happen to go to the SFF village at Marina Bay area.

Abercrombie and Fitch (A&F) is in Singapore. The fashion store A&F has parked itself in the Orchard area. The American casual wear A&F is located at Knightsbridge Mall at 270 Orchard Road. This store is the first in Southeast Asia and opened in December 2011. A&F store showcases the casual wear and also their marketing ploy by having a topless male model at the entrance of the store. The interior of the A&F store is dark and got lots of spotlight on the clothes and enjoy the loud music besides all the pretty nice A&F clothese on display. Enjoy the photos.

Mrupupup went to check out the Supertrees in Gardens by the Bay. It was like being on the movie set of Avatar and the artificial Supertrees were so tall and during intervals music was played to give the place a special feeling like you are in a different world. Think the people who came up with the Supertrees saw the movie Avatar and visioned the place as some unique place out of this world. Checked out the two videos created by Mrupupup.

The latest attraction in Singapore just opened and Mrupupup went to check out the 'Gardens by the Bay' and the Supertrees located inside the gardens. Gardens by the Bay is a new park and costs close to one billion dollars to build on reclaimed land. Gardens by the Bay is located in the Marina Bay area and next to Marina Bay Sands. The gardens is huge and comes with Supertrees, artificially created trees based on the concept of huge trees found in Australia & United States. Gardens by the Bay was really packed with many people and they just want to check out the plants, trees, and the air-conditioned conservatories which housed the plants found in cooler climates and artificial waterfall. Very nice place and took a few hours just to roam about in the gardens. Mrupupup went in the evening and saw the beautiful lights installations and the Supertrees which tower 5-7 stories high (like being in the movie Avatar). Do check out the photos below.

Mrupupup spent some time looking at people surfing in an artifical wavehouse in Sentosa. Look very cool and fun to surf. I did not know Singaporeans surf. Was fun and would like to try surfing one day in Sentosa Wavehouse. You can check out the below photos to see if you would like it.
