22 April 2005 - Perth Zoo

We were utterly disappointed after spending A$33 (A$16 per adult & A$1 for a paper map. Children under 4 is free admission) and ending up fully exhausted and worn out! Definitely a thumbs up for visiting our own Zoo !! At least its cheaper (S$13 per adult) here !! Well, I was expecting at least to catch a glimspe of a giraffe here since the last time when I brought Jamie to the Singapore Zoological and was told that giraffe will only be back in the zoo few months later. To my dismay, not only we couldn't see a single giraffe, its barely difficult to see a handful of animal in Perth Zoo as well!! If you can see 2 lions, you are d*** lucky! And the weather is killing us. This probably is the hottest day during our stay there. And we gotta walked uphill, downhill and at the end of the day, we only managed to see 2-3 Orang-Utan, 1 hippo, 2 monkeys, 1 lion, 1 tiger, 1 leopard, 2 elephants & 1 wombat. These are what I can recalled. Imagine, we were standing in front of the description board reading, and then, staring into the empty piece of plot. Nevertheless,as usual, Jamie can't be bothered even if she has a closed encounter with the kangaroos or koalas or not. **which obviously none is spotted at the zoo!!***
