ABBEY: Christmas is a happy season. As the song goes, "It is the most wonderful time of the year". The holiday spirit is full of love, happiness, sharing and giving. Singapore malls and hotels showcase their giant and unique holiday trees.  One is made of macaroons, while the other full of lights. Orchard road is where you can feel much of the holidays. Lights, songs, people in costumes and specially the wonderful Christmas trees.  This year a couple of those caught fire. Still the festive mood goes on. Hoping to see more design in the coming years. WILL: You will definitely feel the holiday and festive season once you see the gigantic Christmas Trees all over Singapore. From North to South, East to West, every mall and establishments have their own to express their feelings.  Very creative minds were behind this magnificent trees. Next year? Hmmm... I am thinking who will win the award for  Orchard Road Business...

ABBEY: After the seven-year stint of Songs of the Sea, it ended with flying colours. And speaking of flying, Sentosa offers another light, water and sound show with Wings of Time.  We won a pair of tickets on the first day of the show itself. It was a story of Shahbaz going his way home with the help of Rachel and her friend Felix. Yes that is the story line. I can't see the connection of the concerto maestro as well as the role of the other casts on the plot. Once the animation began, the casts were "casted" on the sidelines unlike on the Songs of the Sea wherein there is an interaction. But in Wings of Time, the light show and fireworks are better. Your eyes will feast on the light patterns as well as its coordination with the fireworks and water.  Tickets were priced at 18SGD for regular and 23SGD for premium seats. WILL:  Thanks to the State of Fun for giving us an opportunity to see first the most awaited show at Sentosa…The Wings of Ti...

ABBEY: After a fun-filled half-day at Legoland Theme Park, we were drenched with sweat. The water is calling us at the adjacent water park. After filling up our hunger, we headed to the pools. First stop is the Buil-a-Raft River. This is their version of lazy river. Since we got tired on the park, we grabbed floaters, laid back and let the current drive us. Lego bricks were scattered along the river stretch and you can build your own raft. Then we tried their slides : Brick Blaster, Splash N Swirl, and Tidal Tube. We got most fun in the LEGO Slide racer. Each of us went to a different tunnel aiming to be the first. Both instances, I won. I'm the heaviest and I built the most momentum.  The wave pool is boring as the waves are not that high but it is the best location to take snaps along with the Legoland sign.  We definitely had a great time on Joker Soaker pool. We were waiting for the giant pail to fill up and soak us with cold water. Even the lifeguards particip...

ABBEY: We went to Legoland last April 7 as part of our "payment" to our Ate Sol for helping us in paperworks of our "cashcows". We were there at 9AM when the park opens at 10. Why? To have our pictures taken without any obstruction just like we had on our visit to Hong Kong Disneyland . We got our jumpshots, wacky and Facebook-profile poses. We also had some snaps at the hotel. We even had our breakfast before the gates open.  When it is about time, we queued up on the gate and the Red Lego brick is welcoming the guests. The staff shouted "Are you ready?" and the crowed roared with a deafening "Yes". The gates opened and we headed on the left side of the park where Project X is located. It was not yet open as testing is still on-going for a couple of minutes. We then decided to try AQUAZONE Wave Racers. This water ride is good. Turn right and you'll be on the outside track and you'll get wet. Turn left if you just want to get dizzy. T...
