we are going to the zoo zoo zoo!

hubbi has balloted for his corporate pass to bring us to zoo yesterday!
though the last time we went was quite recently in mar, we were pretty excited to revisit it with yz again.
as we only managed to comb less than half of it previously (we went to attend a bday party), we were eager to explore the other parts of zoo. :)
so both of us took leave and left the house early in the morning for the excursion!


photo time with yz!

been sometimes since we last took such 大头照!

while waiting for hubbi to get the car from the carpark, its camwhoring time again!

muah, kiss kiss and taste some of my loose powder

嘟嘟嘴!

was a tad worried that it may be crowded there since its the school holidays now.

but my worries were unfounded. :)

we had brekkie again at ah meng kopi for im craving for some old school food like half-boiled eggs & butter sugar bread. *yum*

yz still remembered these ben&jerry cows. :)

he was really freaked out by these 树 uncles. haha.

this time round, he was more daring to walk around on his own.
guess he knows by now that the animals are cages out and not roaming around! haha.

he actually remember the fake otters display!

1st stop: giraffe feeding time!

on the way, we visit animals like zebras, rhinos, ostrichs etc which yz terms as "good animals".

first time i saw giraffes up close and realised that they have long dark greyish tongues. eeks.

yz was scared to feed them carrots. also good lah, save us $5. haha.

after this, we continue on the foot path for a series of "notti animals"!

we saw the lions (which gave me the creeps too), jaguar, mountain cats, crocodiles (my worst nightmare!!) etc.

its yz 1st time seeing all these animals as we missed it the last time round.

he is rather scared of these notti animals esp. after seeing how they "tackled" "good animals" like antelopes, water buffalos, zebras, deer etc on animal planet. LOVL.

so after the briefest time watching these notti animals, yz will said:" bye bye lion/leopard etc" and urged us to move on. haha.

feeling rather brave in papa's arms, yz roaring and pretending to be mountain lion (puma) like those behind him

next stop: feeding time for the jaguars!

we watched them through a glass pane. yz got to see these beautiful creatures up close and personal. :)

it started drizzling abit so we seeked refuge at kidzworld!

letting yz tried on the diff kiddos' hats

we had lunch @ KFC and desserts from ben & jerry as well! :)
so glad that yz recovered well enough from his fever and cough to make it for this trip.
but we didnt let him play at the water works but he didnt seem to miss it much too..

@ KFC

kidzworld seems to have fewer animals as compared to the days when i was a kid.

we saw some horses, ponies and goats. and... nothing much liao. *scratch head*

thought there were rabbits, chickens etc when i was here as a kid.

yz really really enjoyed this animal carousal ride

kept waving @ papa when we circled past him. :)

after kidzworld, we went to stop by awhile at elephant rides.

again, scaredy cat yz was reluctant to go up on the elephant and forbading me to do so too. :(

but at least he got to see how big a real elephant is for we were unable to go to the elephants of asia area this time round again.

then its onwards to amphitheatre for "rainforest fights back" show.

quite interesting and we got to see orang utan, lemurs, otters etc doing their stunts.

but i still prefer the splash safari we watched back in mar.

the sealion is really good with his tricks!

and then its time for us to bid farewell to zoo.

slowly made our way out and saw a few more animals along the way.

saw hippos, flamingos and the white tigers.

this time all 3 white tigers were pacing up and down the ledge and looking intensely over our (visitors) way. *shudders*

didnt help that the stupid husband said they were trying to estimate the distance and to go for the final jump over to our side soon!

argh! so irritating.

scared the hell outta me. quickly ask yz to say bye bye to them and made a beeline for the exit. @_@

GSS was on even in the zoo. hiaks.

buy 2 tops and get 1 top free! lucky i didnt get anything the last time we were here!

this time round, i bought 2 tops for yz and 1 for yr. 3 tees for $58.

not exactly cheap but i like the designs. :)

it was abt 230pm when we left the place and yz was visibly tired.

but can see that he really enjoyed himself tons!

look how happy he was!

i wonder when can we go night safari!?

i miss taking photos with snakes. :(
