trip to zoo!!

after breakfast in outram, my dad wanted to bring the family to mt faber to take photos using his new cam. juz when we found a parking lot, i saw a coach wif the SINGAPORE ZOO ad on it. yup, and we went there!

it was a long and ulu journey... thankfully the weather was alrite.. the tix was $20each.. pretty ex, but considering none of us went there for over 10yrs. i think it's pretty alrite.. it's pretty crowded... guess cos the sch hols coming to an end..

so ya, we walked ard and look at animals. haha. there was manatee!!! haha.. cute.. there were a few interesting parts of the trip
1. we went to see the pgmy hippo. it's a smaller species of hippos.. the visitors were separated from the hippos by this glass wall. i saw the butt of one of the hippo so i went closer for a second look. then it turned ard... and faced the glass. so i was like, take photo! so i juz sat 'next' to it. the hippo was so sweet. and photogenic. it juz stop there and posed for pics with my whole family..lol.cute
2. we saw the lions mate. LOL. yup, we saw the lions, took photos of it then went to take photos of the giraffe. then when we turn back again, we saw the male lion on top of the female one. SHAKING. ya, it was pretty amazing and funny.. everyone kinda stop in their tracks to stare at this amazing sight.. haha..
3.there was this enclosed area where reptiles like snake and lizards where allowed to roam freely. visitors were allowed to walk thru the area. i chose not to.. my mum followed behind my dad and lil bro.. then seconds later, my mum came out shrieking: there's a huge chamelon inside. eww. so disgusting!!!! haha.. apparently, she didn't noe it was a free ranging area for the reptiles. she said it was dangerous. yup, tt's why i didn't go in. it was freaky enuf juz looking at the snakes in their small see thru box. to be close up and not separated by anything? that's worse!
4.the elephant show.. very cute... i've got some parts recorded in my hp...

yup, so tt's abt it.. i prob won't go there again for another dunno how many yrs.. haha.
