My World - Sentosa Flower Show (Part 9-Merlion)

Continuing from yesterday's post on Sentosa Flower Show, I am almost done with the final part of the series of photos. Hope you are all not bored by it...lol.

Today post is the famous icon of Singapore, the Merlion. As mentioned very often, there are four merlions in Singapore. One is this 37 metres tall Merlion in Sentosa, two at the Merlion Park fronting the Singapore River and a small one at the top of Mount Faber.

You can view my other posts on the Merlion.

These swans were made with flowers, they were also part of the flower show.



A short and interesting video of the Merlion.

Sentosa Flower Show (Part 8-Imbiah)

Continuing from yesterday's post on the flower show, this is another landscape with flowers around. This is with an American Indian Theme.

Can you find me or my Sues hiding inside the tee pee? (hehehe)


I know my best friend CC, in Texas would love this.



Hope CC received the smoke signal that Sunbonnet Sue send to her.

P.S. CC, Sue send her regards to you and she is very well behaved. :) Can you find her and her cousins hiding in the tee pees?

Sentosa - Flower Show 2009(Part 6) at Imbiah-Pink Saturday - Happy Valentine's Day

Happy Valentine's Day to all.

This is part of the Sentosa Flower Show 2009. But this is not at the palawan beach, it is on higher grounds near the famous Merlion icon of Singapore. Will talk more about the merlion in another post. There are altogether four merlion icons in Singapore. Two at Merlion park , one is at Sentosa and the last one at Mount Faber. You can view them in my posts in here.

This is so cute, a valentine heart shaped flower arrangement for Valentine's Day. Trying to take photo of this cute couple proved difficult. There are so many people queueing to take photo of this couple. The cushions infront of them are for people to sit and pose with them. I have to be quick with my fingers and take this photo once the people left the cushions...lol.

The Ox family at the flower show. Do you know the meaning of Ox? It is funny why it is known as The Year of the Ox and not the Year of the Bull or the Year of the Cow.
I just found out that Ox meant a castrated bull....lol. So is the above Mr. Ox stopping at two? I thought we are supposed to encourage the young to have more children in a low birth rate country.

This will be my contribution for Pink Saturday.

For more pinky participants, please visit Beverly of How Sweet The Sound.
Please return to see more beautiful photos of the flower show and the 37ft merlion in my next few posts.

Skywatch-Sentosa Flower Show at Palawan Beach Part 5

Still at Sentosa, I saw these huge flower wind mills at the beach. I enjoyed my little trip to Sentosa, been a long time since I visited this little island off the south west of Singapore.

There are more attractions in Sentosa besides beaches. Universal Studio will be completed by next year and there will be a casino here. I will be looking forward to the theme park but not the casino (cause I never won anything in Casino...lol). Good thing there's a cap of an entrace fee of $100 for the local to visit the Casino.

Two short videos to show you the surrounding area of the beach.
