Our Safari Stint

The perfect remedy to a dreary school week is going on a short break.
Thats what we did- a pseudo holiday trip to the NIGHT SAFARI!
Saturday Night. The weather was cool, light drizzle.
After a car ride (courtesy of Hua), through an ULU ULU stretch of road,
we reached our destination.
I embarked on my virgin trip to the night safari. Haha.

First things first, take touristy pictures at the gantry!

This is at the entrance with some fire-blowing/eating performers in the background.

Hua is buying $2.50 Ice Mountain bottled water.

We spotted an 8bucks SugarCane juice on the menu as well.

Nice decor & ambience.

The Tram ride which we didnt take. Thank goodness we didnt!

The moon peeking out from the clouds, which peeked through the lush foliage.

I cant remember what I took in this picture.

I just like how stark it looked, a la Survivor night-videos.

Trees adorned with LOTSA food, like a premature Christmas tree.
Unfortunately, there wasnt any flying squirrels spotted.

BATS! You see them fighting over the jackfruit.
We almost stole it from them too.
You should smell the fresh Jackfruit too!

Look carefully! GIRAFFE!!! They are majestic up-close.
It's sort of hidden behind the tree, and it doesnt help that it looks like one too.

This was a spectacular view from the East Lodge, near the Giraffes.

Gosh, the picture here doesnt do it any justice.
It was out of the world, we didnt feel like we were in Singapore anymore.

Finally, a group picture!
My fellow Steve-Irwins wannabes!

Thanks to my Girlfriends for the fabulous company.
Haha. That was one hell of a 11bucks educational trip man.
We learnt how porcupines mate, how thick rhino skins are,
how much otters stink, how blind & lazy or slow some animals are,
how gorgeous lions are, how some animals have bigger eyes than brains etc.
:) I sensed Mother Earth smile last night.
