There was in fact a travelator ( I describe it as a horizontal escalator) across to Sentosa Island. When we arrived we went to 711 to buy cigarettes for 13 Singapore dollars (6.50 GBP). Charlie described it as being 'torn a new Ar**hole'!
The we queued to get in.....people were getting really excited about the characters walking around like Kung Fu Panda and Frankenstein. The parents were more excited than the children!When we got in everyone started running....Charlie decided to make fun of them and copy....hm mm i reckon he just didn't want to be too far back in the Transformers queue.

Battlestar Galactica: Cylon
Blue Track
It's a suspended roller coaster (basically your legs dangle) which shoots you up,around and upside down with and intense corkscrew and cobra role! The harness holding you in is really bendy so you seriously feel like your going to fall out!
Battlestar Galactica: Human
Red Track
Human reaches speeds of 83km/hr and propels you over 14 storey's into the air!
The roller coasters run at the same time so it feels like your going to crash!Its the worlds tallest duelling roller coaster!!! We were on Cylon when Human broke down and I was so scared that we were going to get stuck upside down.We didn't LOL!

| What both roller coasters look like! |
Ancient Egypt
Revenge of The Mummy
Your plunged into total darkness on an indoor roller coaster where you come face to face with warrior mummies and scarab beetles.The roller coaster itself is pretty average but the set is really creepy! A little boy in front of us left the ride in tears- I don't blame him it was pretty scary!
The Lost World
Jurassic Park Rapids Adventure
It's a dated river rapids ride with mechanical dinosaurs. It starts as a boat trip but as you go along your told that there has been a fault in the park and the dinosaurs are loose. Then the ride gets slightly bumpier and you get a bit wet.The best bit was at the end when your put in a lift shaft and raised up then dropped into the water.It was ok-but a bit old fashioned!
Canopy Flyer
'A Prehistoric birds eye view as you soar over Jurassic Park'. It was also ok- bit slow and tame though! The lost world was probably my least favourite area.
WaterWorld
 |
| The set of WaterWorld! |
Live water show (same storyline as the film really). The warm up was guys squirting people in the audience. There were stunts on jet ski's and boats and at the end an exploding sea plane flies in and lands on the water.It was very, very good!
Far Far Away
Shrek 4D Adventure
 |
| Lord Farquaad's Castle! |
You join Shrek as he tries to rescue Princess Fiona from the ghost of Lord Farquaad.At one point in the movie Donkey sneezes and you feel it hit your face (water of course) and spiders drop all around you (Shrek cuts the web) and you can feel them hit your feet! It was really good and my first experience of a 4D Movie.

Madagascar
A Crate Adventure
It's obviously for little kids- but i had a go on it (you've got to really)! It reminded me of 'It's a small world" at Disney.But the set was really good. My favourite part was when the monkeys shout 'If you have poo...throw it now!' and you get hit by water!
New York
Lights, Camera, Action!
This is hosted by a video from Steven Speilberg! You enter a sound stage which then becomes the setting for a grade 5 hurricane about to hit New York City! It was cool- really amazing to see how they create these scenes in a film. From the picture you can see above the boat sets on fire...which then spreads across the water, the wind picks up so much it blows the windows off.Things are falling off the walls and the ceiling caves in.Then a big boat crashed through the wall!Cool right!
LOVED!LOVED!LOVED UNIVERSAL STUDIOS SINGAPORE!!!
