The undeniable stars of the Singapore Zoo have to be the Orangutans and these guys really put on a show for us, including one of the wee ones spraying a golden shower over one of the kids who posed by sitting on that huge log in front of them. The funny thing is the kid had no idea what was going on but the rest of us looking on were aghast by what was about to happen so he freaked out as he looked at us freaking out and then got wet anyway. Great show!

Nevertheless my favourite has to be the elephants just because I share the same big size as them.

Here is my foot against their foot to prove it to you. I was expecting their prints to be a lot bigger but I guess the Asian elephant really is much smaller than its African counterpart.

The current star attractions are the two pandas- Kai Kai and Jia Jia who are always kept in separate pens, I don’t know why. They are very often not available also so apparently we were really lucky to see both eating, chomping, walking around and generally being playful as we watched them in their massive air-conditioned enclosures fit for 100 school children.

And you can’t go to the zoo without seeing the aquatic life.

It doesn’t get more peaceful than this (especially since the kids are all elsewhere and not interested in these magnificent fowl of the air.
