Mrupupup had a great time in Trick Eye Museum located at Resorts World Sentosa (RWS). There were so many interesting 3D art on display at the Trick Eye Museum. The Trick Eye Museum is located near to the Malaysian Food Court and Astons at RWS Sentosa. Entrance fee costs about $25 for adult. If your want to go to Trick Eye museum, do bring a great camera and take all the weird photos. Mrupupup had great fun and took several photos of people having fun! Thanks Trick Eye Museum Singapore for the free preview of the place!   Fiery Inferno, Help, Help!!     Oh no! Where is my Head gone??? Scary ??     I am an Angel and I can fly and take a selfie!     Scream!!     Hold steady- Trick Eye!

Ok, Mrupupup says that one of the top sunset spot in Singapore is at the coastline along the Marina Bay field area next to the new Singapore Cruise Centre. The sunset was awesome with the backdrop of the cranes, containers from the seaport and the stunning business district skyline. Mrupupup was there to see the sun set slowly during the golden hour. Check out the photo below.

You want to get the best sunset in Singapore - go to Punggol Beach and enjoy the sunset from 7pm onwards. The orange glow in the sky was beautiful and it was like God saying that he created the earth to be beautiful. The few strokes in the blue sky canvas was for all to see. Check out the photos.

Tulip Mania is on now at the Gardens by the Bay Flower Dome in Singapore. As Singapore is a hot and humid country, having to see tulips growing and well maintained in an orderly fashion is an exciting thing. Mrupupup went to see the tulips growing in the Gardens by the Bay and came back with many nice photo shots. Mrupupup loved the tulips and reminded the experience looking at the wild tulips grown in Holland. The Windmills were also nice touch in the Tulip Mania display. Mrupupup looked at the Dutch houses and had a bit of nostalgia of the experience holidaying in Amsterdam. Tulip Mania very nice and the tulips on display till 4 May 2014. Thanks Gardens by the Bay for the trip to view the beautiful Tulips.

Mrupupup recently attended an interesting event in the IndoChine Forbidden City, Clarke Quay Singapore. The event was a book launch by a famous photographer, adventurer cum diver from the United States - Mr Ernest Brook II. This event was part of the ADEX 2013 expo for the Asian diving community.  TUBA means The Utimate Dving Afair! Mrupupup found the book launch and presentation of Mr Ernest Brooks II's life & photographs very interesting because he took many nice black & white photos of the underwater world e.g. sea lions, fishes. Well, Mrupupup took some pictures of the event. Pretty good and I got a copy of his book (although I am not a diver) and his signature. Yeah! Mr Ernest Brooks II on the left Younger version of Mr Ernest Brooks II Free drinks!

Mrupupup went to enjoy the breeze at Yishun Dam near to Orchid Country Club and Yishun estate. The dam is meant for the fresh water catchment area at Seletar Reservoir. Well, the sky was beautiful and the breeze was great. See the photos. Enjoy the pretty clouds floating in Singapore's sky.

Mrupupup had the privilege to sit right up in the front row to hear and see Joss Stone, a UK Grammy Award winner. She sang her heart out in the Mosaic Music Festival in the Esplanade Concert Hall over the weekend. Joss Stone was a strong singer and she engaged her audience. She made the audience stand up at her last few songs. First time in Mrupupup's life to see the whole Esplanade crowd stood up for a singer. Joss Stone was really GOOD! Loved every song that she sang and she was soulful and pretty too. Enjoyed the  pictures which Mrupupup took while seating at the very second row and in front of Joss Stone. She rockzz!  Hey, at the very last part, the drummer threw away his drum stick and Mrupupup managed to catch one of the drum stick, so lucky! At the end of the concert, Mrupupup had a red wine and admired the branded drum stick. Very good evening!

Over the weekend, Mrupupup went on a heritage trail held in the Fullerton Hotel Singapore. This hotel is unique and used to be Singapore's General Post Office in the early days, right now it is a high class hotel. The Guide took us around to see the Fullerton Hotel and told us of its glory days as a location for the rich and famous. Very interesting heritage tour and Mrupupup learnt a bit more of the Fullerton Hotel Singapore. Thank you National Library Board for the invitation to the Heritage Trail of Fullerton Hotel.
