Took a cab out to the Singapore Zoo today. It was a fair sort of drive (30 mins) but still cost only about S$15.
This is another must-do if you are visiting Singapore. It’s an open concept zoo, which means that most of the animals are separated from the food visitors by moats, which surround their landscaped enclosures. They have over 300 different species and over 2500 individual animals including a couple of polar bears.
The kids favourites were the giraffes. I’ll let the pictures speak for themselves.
Funny thing as we were driving home. It must have been knock off time because the traffic was a lot worse than when we were driving in. It started to rain and all the motorcycles gathered together under the bridges. There must have been 50 or so crammed together at one point, just hanging about waiting for the rain to go away.
Had dinner at a local food court just around the corner from the hotel. S$3 a plate for noodles, fried rice or some meat and a couple of veg. Excellent stuff. Fed the lot of us for under S$20. Had some more kopi as well. Mmmmmm kopi!
