My first post is about the Night Safari!

I'd been wanting to go to the Night Safari for the longest time and so we finally did!

It wasn't the best weather, bit humid, but it was an awesome night.

We had dinner at the Bongo Burger place, which was pretty reasonable for the food, but drinks cost 4 bucks for a can of soft drinks - a definite no-no for me.

The beef burgers were good, according to Ewan, but I was hungry and needed the carbs so I had the Chicken Sausage Pasta.

Not bad.

Definitely made me plan to cook this soon - quality sausages with tomato-based Fusilli, don't think I can go wrong with that!

One of the highlights of the night was definitely the enclosures with the flying squirrels and the bats.

One GIGANTIC flying squirrel flew so close to my boyfriend's head, my heart almost stopped.

And the bat enclosure - gosh, I know they have these super powered sonars, so I think they come close to us 'cos they know we'd cringe.

Was so much fun to almost faint and then laugh at ourselves.

I also really liked the tram ride.

Passing the Giraffes made me wonder what God was thinking when he made them.

They look so magestic, yet gawky, God must really have a sense of humour!

And I rode a zebra!

One made out of fibre glass that is.

It was so funny, I thought it'd be so cool to ride on it, I didn't notice this little boy running towards it at the same time.

So of course taller me got to it first, much to his dismay, and I didn't see, but Ewan said that he made a bratty face at me.

Hah.

Kids have to learn patience!

We also took photos with a sisterly pair of Boa Constrictors.

We found out that they get fed a rat only once a week - cos they take a few days to digest it.

And for some reason, the snakes felt incredibly clean even though the trainer said they don't get cleaned.

It's always fun to be a tourist in your own country.

Thanks dear for spending such a wonderful evening with me! =)
