Our 'Friends of the Zoo' membership is coming to an end on 31st August but we have been putting off going to the zoo because of er... plain laziness. Don't know what powered us that make use move our butts to go on 30 June - the last day before GST increased to 7%. We had lost count, but we should think that was Rynae's 4th trip to the zoo, the 1st being on 16 Sept 2006. To be brutally honest, the zoo is a boring place! The animals are inactive (most of the time snoozing away in the shade), their man-made habitat stinks and walking under the blazing sun in the 28 hectas foreland is no fun! Ask Rynae what she wants to do in the zoo and she'll say she wanna go play see saw there. Indeed, the children's world play land is a smart development within the tourist attraction, with not only a KFC outlet but an indoor and 2 outdoor dry and wet playgrounds. Rynae never fail to make this her pit stop. We always try to cover or engage in different activity on each trip there. This time, we paid $4 to get Rynae a pony ride. Now, try asking her what she wants to do in the zoo and she'll change her statement to 'I want to ride a HORSE!' (nah.. she still cannot differentiate between pony and horse, just like a gorilla being called a monkey!)
