Matt's Day Trip to the Zoo

Journal Entry 123

As Matt touches 3 yrs of age, photo takings and family outings has been minimised to a certain extent. Reason could be ~ that he is more hyper now (playing hide and seek) and indirectly- getting him to snap a decent photo is a now a big challenge for us :( *sob.

For this year's Matt travel plan, we decided to go for a road trip to Taiping after we abandoned him for Singapore (sorry:(). It was a combo trip as I need to take my aunt back after her monthly doc review. So, all packed and Taiping here we come. This would be Matt's 2nd trip.




The weather wasn't that hot -so it was pretty relaxing strolling the place. Started about 10am to avoid the noon sun. There were a few 'lawatan sambil belajar' tour, so we also 'tumpang' to listen in as the guide explains. It was free anyways :) !! Thanks to Alf's advice, we decided to go during the animals' feeding time - he was so right - these animals were really hungry - good timing indeed !

No doubt it was tiring walking the whole place, we did had a very good bonding time.

At least, he gets some bits and pieces of what childhood is all about :)
