Birthday Celebration with Daddy and Mummy - Round 3

On my actual birthday, we went to celebrate my birthday at the Jurong Bird Park, together with Joel, Camille, Uncle Telang and Auntie Winnie !!! Wanted to go to the zoo, but the new waterplay station at the JBP was opened, so wanted to go and try out. Uncle Telang signed up for the zoo and bird park annual family passes and he included me as well (since he could sign up for up to 3 kids). So only Daddy and Mummy had to buy tickets (and Daddy managed to buy tickets via Deals for 30% discount).

We reached early at 9 am, in case the weather turned rainy in the afternoon. Fortunately, the weather forecast said the day was a partly cloudy day, and it was right .... sun was out, and was a perfect day for waterplay later.

We walked around the bird park enjoying the different exhibit areas for a while, before we went to have some fun at the dry playground. And then it was time to catch the King of the Skies show. We watched it the other time, and thought it was a repeat. But the show actually had new elements to it, and it was really better than the last version that we watched before. Liked the way they introduced the various species.

And the highlight of the trip had to be the newly opened waterplay stations !!! Joel, Camille and I immediately changed into our swimming costume and hit the waterplay stations.

Even Camille who was afraid of water, wanted to try the small slide. And she succeeded, with the help of Uncle Telang

See the 3 of us lazing around in the water

After the show, we went to more exhibits, before we settled for the second show at 11 am. And the highlight for the show was to wait for the parrot to sing "happy birthday" to me .... haha. And ths year, there were quite a number of people who went to the JBP to celebrate their birthday, unlike the previous time when we were there, it was only me !!!

We played for almost 1 hr, before we went to shower, change and drive to Hilltop for lunch. After we parked our cars, we looked up into the sky and saw quite many Kings of the Skies taking flight above the JBP .... amazing sight. Wonder if they were the same species that we have seen during the show.

The kids had Japanese cuisine, while the adults ordered Indonesian cuisine. Yummy !!! We all had quite a lot, before we went back home.

Thank you Joel and family to celebrate my birthday with me .... Happy New Year and may 2012 be a much better year for all.
