the zoo trip

(23rd Dec) it's was an impromptu decision by daddy. actually i was supposed to go to the childcare and they oredi packed my school bag.
but daddy woke up and said to mommy "let's go to the zoo today!" and he made a even better suggestion by asking wai po along!

so we all rushed for preparation to get my porridge cooked.. changed.. and packed then we left house at 9am! then we went to pick up wai po at bt panjang since it's on the way.. and we reached zoo abt 945 or 10am.

since it's still school holiday, the queue was quite long with a lot of parents bringing their kids to the zoo too... then cos it's a last min decision, so we all didn't check whether there is any promo for the entry tickets. well.. all these dun matter. we got our tickets and here we came.

the first stop was the tamarine on the trees then we saw trees with a small wooden home. then we were just in time for the zoo keeper to take out the parrots and put them on the tree trunk. but dunno what happened, one of the parrots suddenly yakked very loudly and i got very scared by the sound.
as we walked further in, we saw a fresh water "crocodile" (actually was not it's real name, just assemble crocodile) then we saw the white tiger, pygmy hippo which i also scare, then kangaroo, oh this one is ok cos its' quite a distance in between us. then i got scared by the monkeys too. in fact, everything we saw, i tried to turn away and if the adults insisted, i cried in protest.

at the hippo... wanted to see, but dare not to be close.

around 11am, we went to for the elephant show, while we waited, i was still ok, but once the show started, and the elephants appeared, i started crying again, so i had to be carried outside, but with so many pple crowding over there, it was quite impossible and i caught a lot of attention cos of my cry. so mommy got no choice but to left w/o watching the show.

just a few min away, we reached a restaurant and we had lunch.. once i finished the porridged we brot along, i got intersted in the lemon tea on the table and wanted to drink.. guess wat, i fell in love with the ice lemon tea and i drank almost half the glass until mommy and wai po had to hide the glass.

totally enthu with the ice lemon tea

then we proceeded to the kids rainforest cos mommy heard quite good review with the water sports there for kids. since i showed my interest in playing with water previously. who knows, when we reached there and i was changed into swimming suit, i dare not enter in the playground.

since the sky became dark and started to drizzle and i dun want to play with water, we had to hide in KFC to wait for the rain to stop. end up, i drank lemon tea again! haizzz...

more ice lemon tea at KFC

maybe it's way past my usual nap time (the nap time at childcare is 12pm), i started to get cranky. and i dun want to sleep while we sat at KFC. so mommy made a decision to go home.

but it's still a long way to walk to exit and on the way, we managed to catch giraffe, lion and zebra and i cried so hard in front of zebra tat i puked out my lunch.

with the giraffe.. look at my face. hahah

and zebra is the last animal we saw on that day.

haizz... from this trip, i think i dun really like animals. and i definitely was a naughty boy, so it was a good idea to bring wai po along since she and mommy carried me throughout most of the time.

the thing is once i was outside the zoo, i was back to my normal self.. and i fell asleep on the ride back. and when we dropped off wai po at bt panjang, i acutally woke up and cried to see wai po left. sigh....

p.s. days after the zoo trip, when mommy showed the photos to me... i can still recognise the animals and say out their names.... woohoo.... think i am ok with the pics but for the real stuff.. mayb wait for me to grow a bit older.
