Visit to Sentosa Flowers 2012

Few days ago, I went to Sentosa for the Sentosa Flowers 2012. It is an annual flower festival in Singapore, held during the Chinese New Year festive period. We parked at Resorts World Sentosa, and went for lunch first, but not before buying my fave caramel popcorn from Garrett Popcorn! :D

A photo with the Universal globe.

Lunch at Chili's: Cajun Chicken pasta.

After lunch, I proceeded to the Sentosa Flowers 2012, which starts from the area near to the Merlion statue. I was appalled by the long queues - Just to take photos of/with the floral display! One has to actually queue to take photos of the floral displays. I have to say it was a brilliant idea since one has to wait for their turn instead of just swooping in. But to reduce the queue lines, why not charge per 'entry' into the floral display area? It can be like a S$1/pax.display and the money can go towards maintaining the florals (since this is a free-entry event) or to charity. There were like 10 or more such displays... Imagine having to queue for each and every of them!? So, nope... I didn't join in those queues. Instead, I took the photos from afar... Such as the floral zodiac dragon as seen below.

The floral humming bird! So pretty!

No, I didn't queue to take this picture.
I was at a distance from the blocked-off area in fact.
Didn't even need to queue. How awesome was that?! :)

Another display...
(Told ya it's all about timing to capture a nice shot, and without the need to queue~) :p

Let me 'flowerize' you with my following flower shots! :p

A dragon fruit plant!

Bought these chocolates from the Hershey's stores at RWS.
The Special Dark chocolate bar is for my dad! :)

OMG! Hershey's kisses in Caramel!
And the packaging is sooooo sweet!!!!
I'm in love already!
