Hello everyone, my family and I just went to the zoo
yesterday and I’m going to blog about it. My sister was thinking of a place for
a family outing, she asked the rest of the family where we wanted to go for an
outing, the rest of us had no idea where we wanted to go so, in the end we
decided to go to the zoo. My sister tasked me with finding all of the needed
info I had to find out ticket prices and all that kind of stuff. Everything was
set for the outing. I asked my sister for the timing to wake up and she said
8am but, I though she said 7:30am so, I set my clock 1 hour back to wake me up
at 6am. The next morning my alarm sounded and I was trying to wake my mum and
younger brother up, then I saw my sister’s message, I was like “ Oh dear I woke
them up at the wrong time!” After I said sorry to both my brother and mum I
went to get onto my wheelchair to get ready. At 8:05 my grandaunt came to pick
us up to send us to the zoo.
Once we arrived we had a light snack before heading into the
zoo. My sister went to get the tickets; the ticket price was $110 when I
searched for it online but thanks to my mum’s NTUC membership card we were able
to get a discount. At 9:00 am I was the first one to go into the zoo my sister
told me that I only had 10 seconds to get pass the barrier, I managed to wheel
myself pass the barrier. The first animal that we came across was the
Crocodiles. There was one crocodile that was completely still, my brother and I
wondered weather was it a real or a fake crocodile, to find out we looked at it
closely then we saw it snapped it’s jaws than we were like “ Ok it’s real!!”
The next animal we went to look at were the White Tigers, I
told my grandaunt “ I’m going to look at my brother right now.” The reason I
made that joke was because my brother was born in the year of the tiger in the
Chinese zodiac. When we got to the white tiger’s area, one was sleeping and the
other one was walking around, my brother said, “This is like me every
morning.” After we left the tiger area
we went to the Ah Meng restaurant to have our meal, I had my all- time
favourite dish chicken rice.
After a nice meal we went to the insects dome to see the
butterflies, one of them actually landed on my brother’s shoulders my brother
was screaming and holding onto my grandaunt’s legs ha ha. At this point my
forearms wanted to die after all of the wheeling and pushing. None of us wanted
to see the snakes, my sister wanted to
see the snakes then my sister went to see the snakes by herself while my
grandaunt and I waited at the loin’s area. Now I was so tried that I started
yawning, the sleeping lion woke up to roar at me. Our last animal encounter for
the day was the polar bear. It was freezing cold in there.
After a long day at the zoo we went to Swensen’s for
dinner, when it was time for me to have my hot fudge subdue my dad handed me a
really long spoon. I kept dropping it. It was a really fun day See You Soon.
