Mummy - we need to do the night safari too

At four in the afternoon - enjoying our Ben & Jerry's - we were exhausted. Lionardo still wanted to do the Night safari but he accepted that the "old ones" needed a rest.

Back at the hotel - an hour later I got my second wind. Lionardo had a quick dinner and at six we were on our way to the Night safari (sans uncle Patrick). After the "mandatory" picture at the entrance we were queing up to get in with Lionardo engaged in his PSP. Then another queue for the "Creatures of the night" show, which amazing as usual - wolf, spotted hyena, civet cat, binturong.

This is the only place I know of that gives you the opportunity to observe all sorts of nocturnal animal behaivour. Ranging from the himalays to marsh lands and jungles. We saw mountain goats, deer, tigers, wolves, tapirs, rhinos, wild water buffalo......


So One show and 2 longs tram-trips and we were DONE.
