A trip to the zoo

SAM_0569

Elaine suggested a zoo trip last Wednesday since it was a Public Holiday.  Ashley has not been to the zoo before and she was so excited.  We only told her about the trip the night before so that she won’t keep asking about it 🙂  On that day, she woke up real early and asked us to wake up fast so we can all go to the zoo 😛

Ashley was looking forward to seeing the Flamingoes.  It’s her favourite because they are pink.  However, we saw these birds which I think are storks?  I told her they are flamingoes….hhahahahahaha.  Wrong info.

We saw many animals that day. Here are some photos taken from Elaine’s.

Good friends 🙂

We managed to see penguins, reptiles and some mammals like cows, deers, etc.  Oh, we sat on the buggy too and it took us around to see the camels, hippos, flamingoes before stopping at the amphitheater to catch the last bit of the seal show.  It was almost 12 when we left the zoo.  The trip to the zoo was very enjoyable and the weather was nice to us.   However Ashley was quite upset that she didn’t get to see the zebras and orang utans.  We plan to go back again soon.

  4. We always enjoy visiting the zoo. The last one we went was the Malacca Zoo and it’s surprisingly good if not better than Zoo Negara.

    Yes, those are storks.. I told my boys they were flamingoes too but upon reading the info board.. then only we realized they were actually storks. Hahahaha..

    Hi Aunty Barb!;D
    What a fun outing! I like to go to the zoo. I love animals haha… Ashley looks happy with her friends! Surely she enjoyed her time seeing many animals ^_^ You should do it again, she’ll be very happy for it!
    The Tapir looks good with that colour ;D I don’t like komodo, I feel so gross to see reptils since I was a kid. Did Ashley scared with it too?*I think she didn’t haha, she’s brave 😉

    If you planned to let Avery witness beautiful dark picnkish flamingoes, I’d recommend Jurong bird park at Singapore, thumbs up with awesome water feature and scenery!^-^

    Have a wonderful school holiday!
