To the Singapore Zoo!


we took the Bus Hub service ($4 per adult) to the Singapore zoo...it's a rather long journey as it winds around orchard road, stopping by at some hotels and to little india as well. SO mr fluffy here is playing with his PSP here.

Finally we reached the zoo around 1pm


nice plants they have here! so fiery red and all welcoming! and the litter bins are "dressed" up in animal prints! Check out the giraffe and zebra ones...and the 'open' concept toilets! i just love them! very close to nature don't u think so?



me beating the drums, call all kangas and roos to join me in the hippity hop frenzy dance.



overlooking the seletar reservoir, so peaceful and tranquil. And we managed to make it to the elephant show! it was really enjoyable watching the big clumsy looking mammals balancing on the log. Elephants are actually very good at balancing themselves!


k..let's wave to the photographer..."hey...why are u following me??? shoo!"



some of us got lost on the way...."let's look at the map, shall we?"


Next we caught the polar bear feeding time. They were throwing fishies into the pool and thus we could watch the bears in action, diving and swimming down to catch the live fishes!



a flamingo about to spread its wings ....and fly???

hmm...they have horse carriages here at the zoo! how gimmicky!


rhinoceros eating from the same trawl of food. Next i saw a leopard from afar, behind glassed windows.







as u can see, there are so many different mammals at the zoo! from giraffes, elephants, hippos, baboons, lions, leopards, rhinos to even sqwaking parrots at the exit (which i didn't snap).
