			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div align="justify">Check this out! SENTOSA ISLAND – the winner of the Large Attraction Category in the Asian Attractions Awards for the third consecutive year. There is no other theme park has got so many different smaller attractions in it like Sentosa! Well, the list would be too long to list all out. However, I must highlight these :</p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#000099;">The Jewel Box</span></strong><br />A beautiful crystal-like building located on Mount Faber, opposite Sentosa Island. You can take a cable car uphill and drop off at this place before hoping back into the cable car to enter Sentosa Island. There are four different themed restaurants in The Jewel Box and due to its location, you can view across beautiful sceneries of Singapore and Sentosa Island. It’s also a calm and peaceful place for relaxation while sipping down a cup of hotly brewed coffee.</div>
<div align="justify"></div>
<p><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_h911u2JqEgw/Skmq5e292zI/AAAAAAAAAXo/UeQ2Q9upEM8/s1600-h/SingaporeI+315.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5352997536619420466" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_h911u2JqEgw/Skmq5e292zI/AAAAAAAAAXo/UeQ2Q9upEM8/s320/SingaporeI+315.jpg" border="0" /></a><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5352997056000888386" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_h911u2JqEgw/SkmqdgalDkI/AAAAAAAAAXI/wnUTw5itTUE/s320/SingaporeI+276.jpg" border="0" />
<div align="justify"><strong></strong></div>
<div align="justify"><strong><span style="color:#000099;">Butterfly Park &amp; Insect Kingdom<br /></span></strong>Upon entering Sentosa Island, you may find yourself amused by various attractions and might not know where to start first. Well, may I suggest to start exploring the Butterfly Park &amp; Insect Kingdom first. It’s located next to the entrance within walking distance. The sanctuary, which is the home for over 1,500 live butterflies of more than 50 species, is indeed filled with natural greeneries and colourful flowers. Aside from butterflies, you may find yourself surrounded by different kinds of beetles, spiders <em>(which is NOT an insect)</em>, scorpions <em>(again, NOT an insect)</em> and other <em>REAL</em> insects here. Don’t worry. They are all kept in their respective display boxes and cases.</div>
<div align="justify"></div>

<p align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;"><em>Now that&#8217;s a huge bug!</em></span></p>
<p align="justify"><strong><span style="color:#000099;">Dolphin Lagoon</span></strong><br />Take a bus ride to the Dolphin Lagoon (pink dolphin to be exact). Do not miss their Dolphin Show Sessions. The shows are on at 11AM (On weekends &amp; public holidays. Training sessions on weekdays), 1PM, 3.30PM and 5.30PM daily. Watch how the smart pink-coloured dolphins dance and perform! </p>
<p align="center"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_h911u2JqEgw/SkmqeI7lVAI/AAAAAAAAAXY/oqM9luWd9x8/s1600-h/SingaporeI+431.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5352997066876736514" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_h911u2JqEgw/SkmqeI7lVAI/AAAAAAAAAXY/oqM9luWd9x8/s320/SingaporeI+431.jpg" border="0" /></a><span style="font-size:85%;"><em>Don&#8217;t miss the dolphin show</em></span></p>
<p align="justify"><strong><span style="color:#000099;">Underwater World</span></strong><br />Welcomed by a Touch Pool, you can feel some “tame” sea creatures like starfish, stingrays and baby sharks with your hands. Then, walk around and admire the wide variety of sea creature display. Find yourself adoring herds of seahorses and seadragons while being surrounded by a circus of clownfish and anemonefish! We would reach the escalated walkway which would bring you to the underwater world. Find yourself surrounded by gigantic fishes like stingrays, eels and sharks! There is also a special pool for dugongs. I am sure you would be amazed by these ocean creatures on display along the tunnel!</p>

<div align="justify"><strong></strong></div>
<div align="justify"><span style="color:#000099;"><strong>The Merlion &amp; Merlion Walk</strong><br /></span>Not far from Underwater World, you will find the 37-metres high trademark of Singapore – The Merlion. You will find yourself walking around the kingdom of myths and legendary creatures like mermaids and merman. Next, go up to the Mouth Gallery Viewing Deck to witness the mesmerizing skyline of Singapore.</p>
<p><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5352997056275349026" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_h911u2JqEgw/SkmqdhcA_iI/AAAAAAAAAXA/meu6bUk1nck/s320/Merlion1.jpg" border="0" /></div>
<div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;"><em>&#8220;I am the mascot!&#8221;</em></span></div>
<p>
<div align="justify"><strong><span style="color:#000099;">Images of Singapore</span><br /></strong>Wrapping up the one-day tour in Sentosa Island, it’s time for some history of the country. To be exact, this is NOT a place where old pictures and artifacts are displayed. This is a place where you will find yourself interacting with the human-size displays. Before entering the showcase of Singaporean cultural diversity and history, you would be sitting in a mini theatre to enjoy an introductory story of Singapore by a few ‘historic’ personnel. Venturing into time-tunnel, you would be brought to life, passing through different happenings and events, witnessing the real Singapore. Surely, you would be extremely impressed by Images of Singapore. It surely left a deep impact on me!</div>

<p align="justify">White sandy beach… bright sunny days… cooling air breeze… deep blue ocean… refreshing coconut juices! Wow! What a great imaginary place! Well, imagine no more. Pack your bags and come with me to Boracay Island, one of the many islands in the Philippines. </p>
<p align="center"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_h911u2JqEgw/SjCFOT6RjRI/AAAAAAAAATY/u6n8bcHBk6s/s1600-h/boracay2.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5345919238598135058" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 213px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_h911u2JqEgw/SjCFOT6RjRI/AAAAAAAAATY/u6n8bcHBk6s/s320/boracay2.jpg" border="0" /></a><em><span style="font-size:85%;"> Blue sea water</span></em></p>
<p><em><span style="font-size:85%;"></span></em>
<p align="justify">If you are into sandy beaches, I’m sure Boracay will never let you down. It’s time to make good use of the following items in Boracay :</p>
<p align="justify">1. A pair of sun glasses <span style="font-size:85%;"><em>(To protect your eyes from the smiling sun, of course!)</em><br /></span>2. Suntan lotion <em><span style="font-size:85%;">(To protect your skin from getting sunburn)<br /></span></em>3. Swimming gear <em><span style="font-size:85%;">(This includes your sexy bikini or swimming trunk, goggles and anything else you can </span></em><em><span style="font-size:85%;">think of!)<br /></span></em>4. The Hawaiian shirt and beach shorts you bought last summer…<br />5. A pair of sandals <em><span style="font-size:85%;">(To match your Hawaiian shirt and shorts! Haha!)</span><br /></em>6. And your partner <em><span style="font-size:85%;">(How dare you forget this?!)</span></em></p>
<p align="center"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_h911u2JqEgw/SjCFOJVoTsI/AAAAAAAAATQ/4Uh9OZsmz2g/s1600-h/boracay1.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5345919235760082626" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 256px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_h911u2JqEgw/SjCFOJVoTsI/AAAAAAAAATQ/4Uh9OZsmz2g/s320/boracay1.jpg" border="0" /></a><em><span style="font-size:85%;"> Clear shallow sea</span></em></p>
<p align="justify"><em><span style="font-size:85%;"></span></em>Boracay has got one of the most beautiful beach where sands are white and water is blue, where you would have no clue that there are so many things that you can do! Jet skiing, banana boating, kayaking, windsurfing, diving and the list goes on…</p>
<p>Moving around this relatively small island is easy! Basically, everywhere is within walking distance. So let your feet do some exercises. You may also opt to hop on into a motorized tricycle or pedicab if you do not mind sharing with other guests or rent a motorcycle or bicycle should you need privacy. Some hotels do provide shuttle services too. But bare in mind, there won’t be any taxis or cabs around. </p>
<p align="justify"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5345919243295176802" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 213px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_h911u2JqEgw/SjCFOlaIuGI/AAAAAAAAATo/FLLLOlpJObQ/s320/boracay_map1.JPG" border="0" /> </p>
<p align="center"><em><span style="font-size:85%;">The &#8220;believed-to-be&#8221; best part &#8211; White Sand Beach (in red)</span></em></p>
<p align="justify"><em><span style="font-size:85%;"></span></em><span style="color:#ff0000;">TIPS FROM ME :<br /></span>1. Find the best spot in Boracay : WHITE SAND BEACH. It is believed to be the best part of Boracay <em>(where the sun is brighter, sand is whiter, sea is shallower and water is bluer…)</em><br />2. Bring along a pair of sneakers as you might need those shoes for walking…<br />3. Try out the local food there. I heard their mango shakes are exceptionally “not-to-be-missed”!<br />4. Gather more information of <a href="http://www.my.pyotravel.com/">Boracay Island</a> before flying there with your loved one(s).</p>
