Gardens by the Bay Travel Recommendations for 2023 (Updated in Sep)
Walking trail at Gardens by the Bay
#citywalk
The Gardens by the Bay are located next to the Marina Reservoir and offer breathtaking water views.
I love to explore the outdoor themed gardens because there are so much to see and experience.
Generally considered an easy route, you'll encounter other people while exploring and enjoy some solitude during quieter times of day.
Do the walk early in the morning or late evening and enjoy the simple stroll and clean path.
Our Secret Garden
#citywalk
If you are wondering why they are so cute and kids like imagination then you are right!
Some of these lanterns are designed by students from Art:Dis. Which is a school for autistic kids and this time they get to express their creative through the lanterns.
I love how they were so many garden creatures for kids to learn about them too. It was fun to see kids guessing what they were. Spot animals such as a caterpillar, snail, chameleon and an elephant.
There is also a lantern lane where hundreds of lanterns are displayed and all of them are from people from different walks of life.
Bunnies In The Garden
#citywalk
If you are wondering why are there so many cute bunnies on display. This year is the year of the rabbit in the Chinese zodiac calendar. Though usually rabbits are also featured during mid autumn because it is said that they are Chang Er’s companion.
(Chang Er is the goddess of the moon and famous for drinking an elixir to prevent an enemy from stealing it.)
We think the bunnies lanterns is really cute! Sometimes the lanterns aren’t cute you know. GBTB even made some of the bunnies movable (no touching please).
Some of them are seen playing with lanterns, eating mooncakes or simply walking around the gardens under the moonlight.

Third HK Disneyland Trip
#timetotravel As the title says, it's my 3rd trip in HK Disneyland and I really like going here. I repeated the shows and rides I went to the first 2 times. This time, I tried the new ones: Iron Man Experience and Antman & The Wasp Nano Battle. My all time fave ride is Mystic Manor and as for the show, it's The Festival of The Lion King.
The greatest part of this trip now is the fireworks and castle display called Momentus. It's a spectacular show and quite unforgettable. The audience were all in awe and kept saying "Wow" out loud.

A relatively small theme park filled with colourful and elaborate themes, to transport us to a world of fantasy and adventure. This is definitely the happiest place on Earth.
There are many attractions, entertainment offerings, and characters filled parade.
The best month to visit Hong Kong Disneyland is between October and April when the weather isn’t hot and humid.
A Parade You Should Never Miss Out! 🇭🇰

Hongkong Disneyland's parade of characters is such a magical experience. It is like meeting all the characters and casts from the movies that you grew up watching. The feeling is so surreal especially when the characters smile ant wave back at you. Oh my gosh. ahhaha. adults and children will certainly love this show of awesomeness. I was grinning and I was just overwhelmed with excitement watching the entire parade. What a wonderful feeling. Time of the Parade: Just check out the timeslots of the parades on their official website to make sure. Enjoy the experience!

Universal Studios Singapore Travel Recommendations for 2023 (Updated in Sep)
Holidays in universal Singapore
Universal Studios Singapore; South East Asia’s only Universal Studios on a weekday. I arrived at 10:40 am and to my surprise it was crowded, hence I bought the “Express Pass” to skip the line of rides. I enjoyed all the rides apart from the thrilling roller coasters. I liked the themed zones with nice variety. The “Express Pass” was a great idea since I am here for a few days only. The park was so easy to navigate and stroll around. Food was great too, I had a mid-day snack of vegetarian Punjabi samosas from OASIS SPICE CAFÉ, the samosas were large and tasty. Later,I had a late lunch of vegetarian noodles with vegetable spring rolls from FRIAR’S GOOD FOOD, the noodles were well cooked and very tasty too. My day was great and I will be coming to USS next year. By the way, download the App to know the rides and all facilities #singapore# #universal #happy #holiday #family

Shack Shake 🍔 @ Jewel
#sgfoodies
I went to the Jewel Changi Airport outlet and it seems like the biggest outlet and it was 2 storey.
I had the Shackburger, crinkled fries & lemonade iced tea. The whole meal cost $20 but I felt it was worth the price.
The ingredients used are premium hence the price is on the higher end.
The patty is juicy & flavorful, buns are fluffy & soft, cheese melts perfectly, the lettuce & tomatoes are fresh & it balances out the flavour. Every bite tastes heavenly.
A nice place to enjoy great burger and fries.
Luckin Coffee @ Jewel Changi Airport ☕️
#sgfoodies
When I arrived to collect the drink, I was surprised that it was one of the biggest outlet & there are a cosy seating area.
There are a lot of seats inside & in front of the store. This is a great place to chill after a whole day of shopping to rest & enjoy a cuppa of latte.
This time I tried the iced minty coconut latte & it was really delicious & refreshing. I love that it has a strong mint taste. A little hint of coconut & it wasn’t sweet (I chose the least sweet version).
Would love to patronize this cafe again if I’m around Jewel Changi Airport.
