The next day was a day full of animals- at the famous Singapore Zoo! It really is an iconic tourist attraction, and all of us had so much fun. It was very hot and humid of course, and thank God my brother came along with us. The extra pair of hands really helped. Not sure how we would have survived otherwise!
I did a great deal of research beforehand, and we managed to make full use of our time there. We started with seeing the resident polar bear Inuka, who seemed to be doing his morning exercise when we were there. He was doing this routine that involved him swimming around a rock and then towards the glass, and using his paw to push himself off from it. It was really hypnotic to watch.
Another highlight was the Fragile forest, where we got to see the animals in an open, close-up environment. It was really cool! We saw bats, sloths, and many other great animals.
We planned to end off the day at the water play area, but just as we were about to go in, the pool had to be closed because some kid pooped in the water!! Gross!
So instead of waiting, we packed up and left instead. We did manage to cool off in some water in the end, in the swimming pool hotel :)
In the evening, we made a quick trip to Gardens by the Bay to have dinner and to watch the Light and Sound show at the SuperTree Grove. However, the kids were tired and cranky, and so we left early. Ah well, another time I guess!
