Wave House AGAIN






My annual pilgrimage to Wave House at Sentosa.

It appears that every year on the 31st Dec, starting last year, I will make a trip to sentosa to watch other people enjoy artificial surf. This year's countdown began with a trip to watch the hubby enjoy his second try on a surf board. There are two rides there..Flow Rider and Flow Barrel. I gamely pose in front of the more challenging ride, as if I was about to go up on it...LOL!

No plans to subject my body to some hard knocks any time yet. I heard from the other surfing gal friends that they had colourful splashes of bruises on their legs. Let's wait for when I don't have a photoshoot lined up to do this.

In the meantime, HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU OUT THERE!

Wavehouse

Got a VIP invitation (yay!) from Fay Hokulani to attend a party at Wavehouse, Sentosa at Siloso beach. It really is a cool place to visit. I wasn't dressed in the right attire (was kinda overdressed actually) so there was absolutely no chance to try my hand at surfing. Can't wait to find some 'kakis' to do that surf thingy! The wonderful thing about this place is that you don't have to travel to Bali or Down Under to get some surf. If you're hungry after all that falling (inevitable for beginners), there's a quaint restaurant to dig into some nice pizza. And if you're not flat out after that, there's rap and house music to bob to, and a bar to get intoxicated with spirits. They have performers over the weekend I hear. And btw, rates start from $35 an hour for surfing. Not so sure if there's entrance fee though. 

The crowd ranged from gangly teens to thirties. There's a fair mix of locals and ang mohs. And certainly more than anyone's fair share of boardshorts hunks and bikini babes. Surf's up everyone!
