Singapore Part 3: Universal Studios Singapore

This was the great breakfast from InterContinental I mentioned earlier.  It is a buffet breakfast with some ala carte breakie menus available to order as well.  They serve healthy and delicious options to boost up our morning.  The choices such as avocado on toast, pancakes with fresh berries, granolas and more.  Their buffet ranges are impressive and their bread selections, especially those chocolate croissants are absolutely mouth watering.  Their coffee is freshly brewed too, so unlike any other hotel breakfast where they use the instant coffee machine.

Very fresh and vibrant mashed avocado on sourdough served with beetroot spread, roasted paprikas and rocket salad

Pancake and berries

Although the pancake itself was pretty mediocre but as it accompanied with fresh chopped berries, some crumbles and maple syrup, this dish turned out to be rather good.

Today our plan was to spend the whole full day in Universal Studios.  With an express pass in our hand, we believed we could cover most of the rides and attractions.  The pass was actually cheaper than the fast pass or express pass. But I can tell you guys, it is definitely worth it.  However, the express pass price could be differ base on how much the demand on that specific day, but apparently I have seen in some website that you can actually purchase this pass in advance and lock the price as well.

You can enjoy one-time or unlimited fast track to most of the attractions.  While only about three or four rides and attractions that are unavailable with this pass. So, basically we saved hours and hours of waiting time on that day.  We were feeling absolutely blissful yet pity of those who were standing on the regular line.  Sorry guys, I totally understand how you feel because I've been there, done that.

This is the regular line

There were only around less than ten people ahead us and not more than ten minutes waiting for Puss in Boots Giant Journey.  Compared to the regular line that sometimes could take less or more than one hour waiting.  Skipping the sline is so satisfying.

We could do so much in a day.  But travelling with kid is quite tiring too.  Therefore, we left just before dinner time.  And spent the rest of our evening in our comfy hotel while enjoying some late night snacks and sweets.
