We put our nice travel clothes on and headed out to the ferry terminal which is located by the VivoCity/Harbourfront train station to Sentosa Island. Oliver was so excited to see his little friend Helen again and going into a big boat.
We got there just before they opened the check in desk. We were allowed to check in between 12-4pm but we decided to check in early so that we don't waste our time queuing up and get to spend a bit of time on board before we leave Singapore port.
Here we are! The Roses all ready to go!
Before getting on board we checked out our cruise ship - SuperStar Virgo
Of course Luca was fully into holiday mode too!
All four kids were fascinated by the ginormous ship in front of them.
Getting onto the ship:
When we got on board we were a little bit shocked to find our our cabin was way smaller than we expected (we didn't choose the balcony room as we thought we would be spending most of the time outside the cabin) maybe next time an extra room and outside view might be good. We didn't want to spend our time in little cabins so off we went to have onboard afternoon tea at the Mediterranean restaurant at the top of the ship.
Before we knew it, it was time to say good bye to Singapore - we were moving!!! We went up to the top deck heliport to enjoy the view:
We thought an afternoon swim would be a great idea so we all got into swimming togs and got to the pool and guess what!? It started to rain :( We all felt quite cold so jumped into the nice warm jacuzzi. Wonderfully relaxing and the kids had a ball!
We were very disappointed to find out that we couldn't get any free drinks on the ship except when we were dining in the restaurant. When we did the cruise in the Caribbean they had all day drinks and snacks :(
Oh well we still enjoyed our (paid for) coffee and juice by the poolside:
