UNWINDING ON THE SHORES OF A PRESERVED COASTAL FORT

what makes perfect?
a sunny day at the beach, 
a long vacation with my siblings, 
and an ice cold coke in can. :)

in my efforts to come up with a creative pose,
this is what i get.

buried our sister in hea-vy sand
and captured the moment with a dubai-ish backdrop

straight down, baby. straight down. :)

my brother chillin' and 

secretly hoping no one would stumble on him.

reclaimed sand on singapore's artificial beach

My siblings and I visited the 3 beaches of Sentosa on our first visit. Tanjong beach seemed too private and secluded, with families and hotel tenants who reserve the area for parties. At Palawan beach, the crowd consisted mostly of Indian locals and tourists visiting the southernmost point of continental asia, while Siloso beach was flocked with Singaporeans and young adults.

We chose to hangout at Siloso beach on our second visit. We fitted in perfectly with the crowd. (physically, i mean) Our Asian looks had people mistaking us as Singaporeans. haha.. :)

My sister bought a new swimsuit at the souvenir store and got a free beach bag with her purchase. 

I was the official photographer since I decided to stay at the shore as I was wearing a beach dress which i bought for only 3 dollars. cool huh? :) We each brought a camera but forgot to pack the waterproof Olympus. Note to self: Bring waterproof camera on out of town trips. 

Fried ourselves for half a day, gazed at the beautiful sunset, and fell in line at the public bath just before closing time. A visit to the beach always completes a vacation. I'm definitely returning to the shores of Sentosa. I can't wait to bury my toes into the treasure trove that is Siloso.
