Sentosa In Half A Day

It was a great birthday yesterday. Thank you so much for everyone who had texted me, emailed me and wrote on my Wall! It had been a wonderful birthday, not just because I have had so many wonderful people around me, but also because it is the first birthday in several years that I have a special someone to celebrate with.

Due to the Deepavali holiday last Saturday, we could take an off-in-lieu from work yesterday. So he specially baked a cake and brought it over to my place! I am so touched! It is a very good cake too, better than what I would have come up with!

The chocolate cake he baked!

Then we went for a day trip to Sentosa. We went via the new Sentosa Express (which replaced the old monorail), and bought a package of three attractions and one adventure. So we ended up going to Images of Singapore, Tiger Sky Tower (which used to belong to Carlsberg), had lunch at the Sky Bar, Fort Siloso, and took the sky train and luge ride.

After that, we had dinner at Morton's of Chicago. All in all, it had been a really wonderful day! :-)
