Spa Botanica

It was my first time to Spa Bontanica at Sentosa yesterday. Reached there at about noon time....which was exactly 12pm. My auntie brought me around and showed me all the different facilities that was available. There was a little drizzle so we decided to grab a bite first . Look at my delicious sandwich !!

We got changed and started our "adventure" Brought our stuff outside and went to tryout at the mud pool...didn't take a shot of that ...but the mud was supposed to have some smoothing effect and apparently was from New Zealand. haha...*feels my skin* Just at that moment, it the drizzle came back and the rain was getting heavier.... the mud was slidding off my arms and legs....so i juz washed them off. We got some tea from the changing area and brought it outside where we were sitting. Since it was raining, couldn't tryout anything at all. So we juz sat under our umbrella and fell asleep listening to the rain drops and waterfall.

It was about nearly 45mins before the sun came out again. But the waterfall wasn't switched on anymore. We found out that it was on timer...so we decided to go to the pool to swim. I saw a couple there ...ermm..playing so childishly with the water that nobody dared to enter it to swim The pool wasn't a olympic sized one. *hmm..forgot to take a pic of it* but still quite big la...the length was quite long I haven't been exercising for a veyr long time. So it was kinda like my first time exercising since this hols...besides shopping la (if that was ever considered some kind of exercise...but there's a lot of walking involved !!!) The pool was quite deep...deepest area was 2.4m !!! very deep for a shortie like me. Anyway, i swam about 8 laps i think. But had to stop after reaching the other end...i was gasping for air !! thanks to my cough...i really sounded as if i had some lung problem After hearing the waterfall, we got outta the pool and headed straight for it !! I went under the waterfall and let the water fall on my back....*ouchiee* it kinda hurt...with that free-fall gush of water. But it felt GREAT!! haha....supposed to have some massaging effect i think. Then i juz lazed around in that water on the mat....tried sleeping on it too.

Felt restless after a while and went back to the mud-pool. Covered myself with the mud again. This time had a chance to let it dry before washing it off. Think we spent quite some time lazing around, soaking in water and mud. About 4 plus, decided it was time for shower. Although the spa doesn't allow too many people to enter per day, the cubicles were still full. And it was then that i realised i haven't tried the jacuzzi that was indoors. There was the hot and cool jacuzzi. The hot was really quite hot and cold was really cold. But since after all the water outside, i was feeling kinda cold...so i juz went to the hot jacuzzi. There was a lady inside also. But she was coming out. I think she was naked !! She wrapped a towel out unlike others who had swim wear on There was lotsa foam there. Think someone muz have dumped the soap in. The cold jacuzzi's water was all clear. Doubt anyone would have entered it anyway. So COLDDDD !!! The shower cubicles a little bit too romantic la... so dark !! can't even see properly wad i which bottle of shampoo/conditioner/shower gel i was taking. They provide new bottles for each guest and they actually smelt quite good !! Think got some herbal stuff not like in hotels give u those cheap cheap thing.
After a good shower, there was still time left before the bus came and brought us back to Paragon. Walked around the area and took some pics. Nice experience...wouldn't mind going back there again. Hopefully it wouldn't rain the next time !
