Around the World: Singapore Zoo

The morning star rose before the sun on Thursday.

We visited the Zoo today, leaving Chinatown and Little India for tomorrow when the lunar new year is to be celebrated. I think that we will miss the fireworks and the party tomorrow evening (too late for the mini Eggums), but hopefully we will see some dragons in the streets:)

There's ALWAYS something inside those rolls.

An pan is filled with mashed red beans. Sweet...

Today, we saw monkeys, a tiger, an ice bear from the exotic North, and several other animals. I am not sure which animals were there, but I am sure that Emi can tell you.

Brown lemur.

Proboscis monkey.

Tapir.

False gavials.

White tiger.

Wallabys and kangaroos (which means "I don't understand" in an Aboriginal

language, as the answer to a Briton asking what those animals are called.

Cassowary.

Emu.

Ant :-)

Pygme hippo.

Chinese New Year decorations.

Elephants.

Ice bear.

Orang Utan.

Chimpanzees.

Otters.

Emi does what she can to find new friends wherever we go. She likes being in Singapore, but she also misses her friends back home. Several times, she has insisted that we should go to Oslo so that she can play with some friends. It helps talking and singing about her friends, and she is very happy whenever she finds someone to play with. She loves to visit the playgrounds and water parks that there are plenty of everywhere.
