Taking a cable car to Sentosa? A train ride from Vivo? How about try walking to Sentosa from Vivocity. Yes, now you can with the Sentosa Boardwalk which links the island to mainland.

| look out for the boardwalk signage in Vivocity |
Once you're out of Vivocity, you'd be able to see this:

Coincidentally, today was also the last day for Sentosa Flowers event, so we got to see flowers everwhere.
 |
| CNY flowers |
 |
| pretty flowers |
Actually, there are travelators along the way if you don't quite feel like walking all the way....
 |
| hop on to the travelator, travellers! |
Went exploring the F&B areas (need to walk down some stairs), and saw this:
 |
| sculpture |
 |
| flowers lined up |
And very quickly, we reached Sentosa. Visitors can use their EZ-Link card to enter via the turnstile entrance. After which, we saw RWS...

 |
| this is like the MUST take picture when in RWS? |
And because it is CNY, they have this humongous rabbit:
 |
| HUGE fortune rabbit |
Inside RWS, there's this big candy shop and outside of it you can see candy 'trees'.

As it was lunch time, went to eat at Baits, which turned out to be.. Din Tai Fung. Faints. After lunch, went in search of the Sentosa Flowers, which was supposedly somewhere beyond the Merlion Plaza.

| walk up to get to the flowers |
Along the way, saw sculpted flowers to represent the Chinese zodiac signs:
 |
| rabbit sculpted flowers |
 |
| chicken flowers |
 |
| mouse and monkey (at far back) |
Then, saw this:
 |
| 'Le Penseur' aka The Thinker |
Walked and walked and finally....
 |
| Sentosa Flowers start point... even monks also came to see... |
 |
| wat's up doc? can't a rabbit take a break? |
 |
| wishing tree |

Many many visitors, and there were flowers everywhere. Was also approached to help other people take their pictures, twice. Hahaa!
After being out in the sun for some time, took refuge in the air-conditioned comfort of RWS.
