To the bird park!

It has been a long time since we last visited the Bird Park and becos PaPa couldn't get the free tickets for the zoo, we had to settle for the Bird Park in the last week of scholl holidays.

The kids were very excited with the trip early in the morning as both PaPa and Mummy dragged their bodies out of the bed before 8am. We headed off the long distance driving with dark clouds looming above us..

True enough, the weather worked against us, the rain starting pouring after we walked fairly a short amount of time, and we had to seek shelter in one of the huts. That's why the kids had their bread, some light snacks and enjoyed the titbits which Grandma and Mummy has brought along. It was a very tiring trip for us as Caden and Ethan wanted to be carried at times and the pathways were upslope and downslope structured. We ended off leaving the Bird park unsatisfied and hungry and tired.

I don't think we will be going to the bird park for a long time again.. cos it's rather smelly and too tiring for us to bring along the kids given the obstacles we had to go through when we toured on foot.
