Going to the Taiping Zoo

Now, now.. yes.. I've not been to this zoo since I was five. And for good reason too, the last time I was there, a monkey attacked me. Funny, yeah yeah!!

Sheri: Going to the zoo with you guys is like walking into a grocery store. How many things do you guys eat? (Yes, we did point at all the animals and plants that we'd eat given the chance and given a chef.)

Highlights at the zoo include:
1. Annoying a king cobra so much that it flared its hood. No one likes to be woken up rudely!
2. Being approached by a lovely deer, begging for some attention. Bright eyes and a lovely coat. This was some Bambi!
3. The sun bear showed us how well it could balance itself by pacing to and fro .. maybe about only 6" wide before it'd fall into the little moat in its enclosure.
4. Orang utans are smart animals. One of them put on a great show for us, by waving a leaf and then getting her partner to join her.

Well, after all maybe the animals found us to be just as or more amusing. Silly humans!
