Our Parenting World, Gor Gor and Di Di were at one of our favourite places, Sentosa! We were at Sentosa to watch its signature Songs of the Sea as after a successful seven-year run, the show was coming to an end. Songs of the Sea was the world’s only night extravaganza set in the sea has captivated 8.5 million guests with an unique blend of live cast, dramatic effects and pyrotechnics.
Many thanks to the organisers and Sentosa for inviting us and we had an opportunity to watch this well-loved and spectacular show. Songs of the Sea cast its spell over the audiences from Singapore and the world one last time on the evening of 4 May 2014.
Before we went to catch the show, Gor Gor and Di Di went to the gift shop to get some souvenirs. The main character of the show is Oscar the Tiger Fish as shown in the above picture. The boys love this character.
“Cheese!”, the boys poising for the photographer.
The boys were chatting excitedly about the show as they made their way to their seats.
Di Di says: “We are waiting for the show to start and I can’t wait to see my favorite character, Oscar. Can you tell that I am wearing the same colour as Oscar the Tiger Fish?”
The highly entertaining show displayed dramatic effects with laser shows, water jets, dazzling fireworks display, computer animation and enthusiastic sing-alongs live cast.
The show also featured captivating music like “It’s Me”, “Magical Song”, “You’re Not in This on Your Own”, We Did It!” etc.
