WOKE UP THIS MORNING FREEZING COLD FOR SOME REASON SOME ONE HAD THE AIR CONDITIONING JUST CRANKED, MY ROOM HERE AT FERNLOFT LIL INDIA HOSTEL IS REALLY NICE AND HAS GOOD SECURITY YOU GET A SCAN IN AND OUT CARD FOR ALL DOORS, BUT FOR SOME REASON THE HALL WAY SMELLS LIKE URINE EWWW I DREED IT EVERYTIME I GO OUT THERE BUT FOR 12$ A NIGHT IT DOES THE TRICK. IN THIS HOSTEL THERE ARE ALOT OF INDIAN PEOPLE STAYING AND IN THERE CULTURE THE WOMEN DRESS IN FULL SARIES AND DONT SHOW SKIN, SO WHEN ME AND JOSIE ARE GETTING OUT OF THE SHOWER THEY ARE GIVING US THE LOOKS AND ONE OLD GUY EVEN TURNED ON HIS VIDEO CAMERA AND I HAD TO ASK HIM TO STOP, THEY ARE VERY STRANGE AND VERY CREEPY EWW, BUT IT IS TO HOT HERE TO PUT ON LOTS OF CLOTHES SO I CONTINUE TO WEAR MY SUMMER DRESSES FOR THE VIEWING ENJOYMENT LOL JUST KIDDING! IN THE HOSTEL THERE IS ALSO ANOTHER OLD MAN BUT HE IS WHITE AND VERY RUDE HE IS PROBABLY IN HIS EARLY 50'S AND I DONT UNDERSTAND AT HIS AGE WAY HE IS HERE BUT I DID CATCH HIM DOING HIS LAUNDRY IN THE SHOWER AND STROLLING AROUND IN BOXER SHORTS IT WAS NOT A NICE SIGHT, AND ALSO LAST NIGHT THE LIGHT WAS ON AND HE CONTINUED TO SHUT IT OFF AND TELL US IT LIGHTS OFF QUIET TIME, THERE IS NO RULE ABOUT THAT SO TONIGHT WHEN HE CAME I SHUT OFF THE LIGHT IMMEDIATELY HE DID NOT SEEM IMPRESSED BUT I THOUGHT I WOULD GET HIM BACK HEHEH
BUT AFTER MY TOAST AND PEANUT BUTTER AND COFFEE DOWNSTAIRS, WE DECIDED TO EXPLORE LITTLE INDIA DURING THE DAY, THERE WAS THIS FUNKY LIGHT STORE THAT HAD AWSOME PIECES I THOUGHT WOW MAYBE ALL BUY ONE AND SEND IT HOME BUT TO MY SUPRISE THE ONE I PICKED WAS 6000$ YA A LITTLE TO EXPENSIVE FOR ME BUT I DID GIGGLE AS I ALWAYS SEEM TO PICK THE MOST PRICEY ITEM IN EVERY-STORE FOR SOME STRANGE REASON.
AFTER THE STROLL IN LIL INDIA WE DECIDED TO HEAD TO THE SINGAPORE ZOO WE TOOK A BUS THERE FROM OUR HOSTEL IT COSTED 4$ AND WAS A LONG RIDE GOOD PRICE FOR THE TRANSPORT, WHEN WE GOT TO THE ZOO WE EXPLORED ALL THE ANIMAL SIGHTS , IT WAS A NEAT ZOO AS EVERYTHING WAS OUTDOOR AND WAS NOT ENCLOSED, THE APES AND MONKEYS WOULD JUST SWING OVER YOUR HEAD, OR THE PELICONS WOULD SIT ON THE LEDGE BESIDE YOU, AND THE KAGROOS WOULD LIE ON THE SIDE WALK. AT THE ZOO WE ALSO GOT TO SEE A ELEPHANT SHOW THEY SHOWED US HOW THEY COULD LIFT ITEMS , BALANCE, PLAY , IT GOT ME REALLY PUMPED FOR LAOS AS WE ARE GOING TO DO A ELEPHANT TREX WHEN WE GET THERE, AND DURING THE SHOW I KEPT THINKING LUCY LUCY THE ELEPHANT FROM EDMONTON THAT MY NEICE LOVES, I MADE SURE TO GET A PICTURE WITH THE ELEPHANTS FOR SHE COULD SEE. THEY ALSO HAD A MASSIVE ALLIGATOR THAT I THOUGHT WAS FAKE BECAUSE IT WAS SO BIG AND DIDNT MOVE BUT IT WAS REAL AS IT WAS NOT IN THE SAME PLACE WHEN WE WALKED BACK OUT. THERE WAS TONS OF DIFFERENT ANIMALS I HAVE NOT SEEN BEFORE AND EVEN THE LAST 3 WHITE TIGERS!
DURING THE DAY JOSIE CONTIUSILY GOT BITE BY MOSQUITOS SHE WAS WORRIED ABOUT MALARIA, IT IS NOT COMMON IN SINGAPORE BUT SHE WAS RATHER WORRIED, WE MAY PURCHASE SOME MED'S IN THAILAND FOR WHEN WE GO INTO THE JUNGLE.
AT NIGHT TIME WE TOOK A NIGHT SAFARI TO SEE ALL THE ANIMALS AT NIGHT THAT DO NOT COME OUT DURING THE DAY , THIS INCULDED A FLYING SQUIRREL IT WAS MASSIVE IN SIZE AND REMINED ME OF ICE AGE !! DURING THE SAFARI WE MEET A COUPLE FROM ONTARIO THEY WHERE DEAF SO WE WHERE TRANSLATING TO THEM THROUGH MY NOTE PAD, I THINK THEY WHERE REALLY HAPPY, THE REASON HOW WE STARTED MSG THEM IS BECAUSE DURING THE SAFARI IT IS DARK AND YOU CAN NOT USE CAMERA FLASH AND THE DRIVER KEPT REPEATING NOT TO USE THE FLASH AND WAS GETTING MAD AT THEM, THEY WHERE SITTING NEXT TO ME AND I TRIED TELLING THEM BUT THEN FOUND OUT THEY WHERE DEAF, BUT THEY WHERE A NICE COUPLE AND WHERE REALLY HAPPY THAT WE COULD TELL THEM WHAT THE HOST OF THE SAFARI WAS SAYING . AT THE NIGHT SAFARI YOU RODE IN A BUS AND IT DROVE THROUGH OUT THE ZOO WE GOT TO SEE SIBERON TIGERS GIRAFFES DINGOS AND SOME STRANGE ANIMALS I CANT EVEN PRONUCE , IT WAS A GOOD VIEW BUT THE ONLY THING WAS YOU COULD NOT CAPTURE IT ON YOUR CAMERA AS IT WAS DARK , BUT I WILL REMEMBER IT FOR EVER, AND THROUGH OUT THE RIDE YOU COULD HEAR THE ANIMALS AND CRICKETS!
WE HAD TO WAIT FOR THE BUS TO BRING US BACK TO THE HOSTEL SO WELL WE WAITED WE GOT A BEN AND JERRYS ICE CREAM IT WAS 5$ WHICH I THOUGHT WAS A RIP OFF BECAUSE THE NIGHT BEFORE AT THE FOOD COURT I ATE A MEAL FOR 3$, BUT IT WAS SOO GOOD AND A GOOD TREAT TO TOP OFF THE HEAT FILLED DAY. BUT I AM NOT SURE WHAT THE RAVE ABOUT BEN AND JERRYS IS HERE BUT IN THE GROCERY STORE A SMALL TUB OF BENS ICE CREAM IS 23$ HUMM AND I DID SEE A ELECTRIC TOOTH BRUSH FOR 290$ THAT IN CANADA WE SELL FOR 100$ HUGE MARK UP, SINGAPORE IS PRICEY BUT SO NICE!
ON THE BUS RIDE HOME WE PASSED BY ORCHARD RODE AT NIGHT IT WAS ALL LITE UP FOR XMAS AND LOOKED LIKE A SHOPPING PARADISE THERE WAS A L.V CHANEL PRADA AND ALL THE BEST NAMES FOR KILOMETERS! HEAVEN AGAIN WHEN I AM OLDER AND HAVE CASH SINGAPORE IS A GREAT SHOPPING DESTINATION!!!
