my group decided to head straight to the pizza restaurant and ordered a huge cheese pizza to share! we then went on a ride called the Sky Tower, this was a 130m tall revolving viewing gallery that we took some amazing photos of Singapore from. we then had tickets to see a 4D movie with the funny little glasses you have to wear, it was something to do with pirates i think!! mainly for little kids but the chairs moved, we were sprayed with water and blown with air, the technology was beyond fantastic. we wanted to make the most of our chill out time so caught a bus to the amazing white sandy beaches with palms and umbrellas. as soon as we stretched out on our towels in our bikini's the heavens opened and we found ourselves sunbathing in a full blown monsoon without much shelter to hide under! it was such a funny experience! after deciding we were already wet we went swimming for the rest of the afternoon, the water was as warm as a bath, so lovely. meeting up with the rest of the cadets later we found that some had visited the aquarium and a couple had even swum with dolphins!
to round the day off we watched a "sounds of the sea" show. this was a beach open air theater with a huge mock wooden village built on stilts out in the sea. using massive jet of water and state of the art projection from the shore they created moving, talking, singing animations in the water as a story of a princess enchanted in the village needing to be saved was told. fire works, music and flashing lights created the most unusual show that i doubt i will ever witness again in my life!!
off to bed now, night everyone!
