::23rd Oct 09::

Ahem~ Now that I'm back from Batam. I'm going to continue with my going-to-be-expired posts :D

Thanks to Joshua's mama for the passes. 8 free tickets! I'm able to bring my family/relatives and including XueNi into the Singapore Zoological Gardens for free! Well, except we've got one extra person so we just pay a child ticket which costs $9.

Had breakfast at CCK, Lot 1's McDonald's, before taking bus927 to the zoo. We had to wait very long for the bus to come. Probably not a lot of people go there on a weekday, maybe only tourists.

Anyway, when we reached the zoo, I was right! There wasn't a lot of people there. I was extremely pleased xD Because the previous time I went, it was overcrowded with people. I didn't have to queue up to see the animals or wait behind to take turns to see the animal in the enclosure. Especially if the place was really small, it will be very cramped with all those people in there :\ And also I didn't get to see some of the animals like the elephants and the orangutan. But I did manage to see them this time.

It's a pity that XueNi had forgotten to bring her SD memory card for her big-ass camera. So she had to use her iPhone to take pictures instead. Luckily her iPhone camera isn't that bad, unlike my handphone camera. So This Is It. A picture spam D: Though I didn't take a lot of pictures like the previous trip, unlike my uncle who kept taking pictures of everything :X For me, I didn't want repetitions.

With that, we entered into the "Australian Outback" zone.

Watched Splash! Safari show at the Splash Amphitheatre.
Carlos is such a clever charming seal :D

Hmm, while we were looking at giant tortoise and porcupines at the "Critters Longhouse" and "Sungei Buaya" area, it began to pour :( Not very heavy but it dampened our mood a little. I mean no one could fully enjoy their excursions in the rain right? Unless it is indoors then I've got nothing to say. We opened our umbrellas and made our way to the "Rainforest Kidzworld" to shelter from the rain. I shared my umbrella with XueNi. Rested at KFC and had a light lunch.

Photobucket
Poor pony. Seems so sad in the rain :(

Photobucket
Cheese fries with no spring onions! xD

Photobucket
Can't wait to see the giraffes! :D

Luckily the rain did stop! :D However, since we are at the zoo... the aftereffects of the rain made the shit of the animals smelled so much stronger than before D: It was suffocating. Anyway, we somehow managed to complete our rest of the journey without fail.

Photobucket
Lucky monkey D:

Photobucket
Try to spot the frogs at the "SPH Foundation Conservation Centre"

Photobucket
So cute! *pets horned frog statue*

Photobucket
Entering the "Fragile Forest".
Please watch your steps.
This area is very much like an aviary... Well, I do not know the actual name for it but it has animals, insects and birds as well. So you can actually see the animals flying past you and passing by you. It's really cool :)

Photobucket
Pretty sad that due to the rain,
a lot of butterflies like this tree nymph were unable to fly.
AND MY MAMA DON'T LET ME PICK IT UP! :\

Photobucket
It tried to get up but it fell down :(

Photobucket
A bat and a two-toed sloth sharing a fruit :)

Photobucket
Did you see what I saw? :X

Photobucket
Tree nymph caterpillar and pupae!
I love it :O!

Photobucket
A jaguar playing with his toy ball.

Photobucket
Leopard here though.
Do you know how to differentiate between a jaguar and a leopard?
Their spots! Jaguar's spots have spots in them, while a leopard's spots do not have.

Photobucket
AND TO MY DISMAY, THIS HAPPENED AT THE GIRAFFE EXHIBIT! T_T
I was so looking forward to see them...

Photobucket
I didn't see this sign at the entrance when I was going in...

The trip was really fun with my family/relatives + a friend. I'm glad my cousins were able to enjoy themselves at the zoo. As you know, the school excursions to the zoo, they only bring the students to a lecture room and after the lecture, they were brought back to the school :\ How lame is that!

I did get to see some sights I didn't get to see when I was there previously. For example, we managed to see an ostrich shitting... It was damn gross... It came out from its ass like a murky green waterfall :\ Like ew. We didn't see everything as we skipped some monkeys out. THE SINGAPORE ZOO HAS TOO MANY SPECIES OF MONKEYS D: Got tired of seeing so many of them... And also it's weird to see birds in the zoo... There are cassowarys, ostrichs, parrots, penguins and crowned pigeons in the zoo! Hey, what is the Jurong Bird Park for?

And, and, and I'm still disappointed that I didn't get to see my no.1 favourite animal, the giraffe!

Photobucket
& yay! The library at Lot 1 has all the books from "In the Garden" trilogy.
Time to rest NDS! Reading time~ :D

Photobucket
Final picture: group shot.

Thank you again to Joshua's mama! She made 8 people very happy. Thus the 8 people said their thanks 8 times. And Joshua's mama replied the 8x the "thanks" with 8x the "welcome". That was very cute of her xD Btw, thanks again and sorry for the trouble ^^'''
