We started the day with a yummy breakfast at a restaurant on Dempsey Road, an English place with a tropical flair – great shop! Delicious! Jeff’s scrambled eggs toast and side bowl of bacon!
Fruit & yogurt for Emma 
My order: Pancakes – literally cakes baked in a pan with mangos and topped with ice cream and cane syrup, with a nice side bowl of bacon
I mentioned in Chapter 9, Sentosa Island felt like Pinocchio's Pleasure Island. See the picture from the movie on the right… look at the photos at the end of the post… Pleasure Island indeed! Check out it’s website: http://www.sentosa.com.sg/en/ Their slogan is “Sentosa: Asia’s Favorite Playground” Play ground indeed… this trip into Sentosa we drove, you pay a admittance fee to drive onto the island – like an entrance toll, and parking fees are a standard Singapore feature (they are set up like ez-pass toll scanners)
We already played around Imbiah Look out, our first stop was to Siloso Beach! We didn’t intend to get in, although Jen brought the girls a change of clothes (and I did too!) I had to take a dip in the straight of Singapore! (see the oil tankers in the background) The girls had fun too!
Cleaned up and headed to the Amusement Park and Mall part of Sentosa
Lunch at a Swanky Chinese Restaurant just outside of the Theme Park
Emma and Ethne are very good with chopsticks!
Our Feast! We tried many things, noodles, fried wonton like things and some of the best sweet and sour pork ever!
Singapore’s Famous Chili Crab
Jen loves steamed dumplings
Hershey Store – never that far from Hershey, PA 
Candylicious!
Then off to Universal Studios Singapore for some rides! http://www.rwsentosa.com/Attractions/UniversalStudiosSingapore
The Girls love Characters! Woody Greats everyone at the park! I have never been to an amusement park that was so empty, we were there mid week and well, summer is all year. 
Far, Far, Away…. to Shrek’s house & castle
Ethne was just tall enough to go on a Roller Coaster! She was brave!
Jurassic Park
Another watering spot.
Our Favorite Ride! We rode over and over again! 
Weeeeeee!
Soaking Jurassic Park River raft tour
The Mummy 
(Great ride inside, not for the kids, real fire… hottsy!)
Ethne Driving the Egyptian Safari jeep – good driver – Emma refused to get it, she declared it a scary ride, so she watched. 
Future Land Tea Cups (space ships) the girls love this! – I managed to take pictures while we were spinning, right when the ride started! That is the look of glee!
New York City Scene
We had NY Pizza for dinner on the way out as the park was closing.
Evening outside, but we aren’t done yet… next stop…
Hershey Store and Candylicious for some very important shopping!
Exhausted from a very fun day on “Pleasure Island”
