Trip - Sentosa - Underwater World

Hi Blog,

After I had done planning our Penang Itinerary and read about the closure of Underwater World at Sentosa news. (source) & (source) I felt upset... and started to miss that place.... 

I remembered when I was young, Underwater World was one of my memorable places but due to high pricing in the past, If I can remember, Adult ($20+) and Child ($10+); so one time experience was filling enough. And now they reduced their price to encourage Singaporeans and others for the last visit.

So I decided to spend my Friday rest to visit Underwater World, and thanks YaoMing accompanying me.

Clear weather!

Hey Blog, 

After nearly half of year of confirmation and arrangement with my Malaysian friends, the trip to Penang finally crystallized.

I planned it by gathering my friend's suggested places of interests, and credit Terence for helping to source out Vegetarian stall. I looked through by using Google Map and Google to read up more information about the places. After a few changes communicated through whatapps with my friends, it took me two whole days to finalise this.
