Hollywood Dinos


We were at Jurong Bird Park this morning for the Hollywood Dinos trail. Normally there would be more pics, but I only had a few as we forgot the camera and I was using my iPhone to capture some images... that is before it flew off under a bridge with around 2 feet of water below.

There were not that many varieties of dinosaurs and it seems the dinos were reused from the Science Center exhibit. So for people who went to both, it may be an outright rip off. For us, it was just not worth the effort... especially considering my iPhone drowned in the expedition, but kudos to the staff who helped me retrieve the phone from the murky waters. I thought it would take forever and even considered writing it off on the spot.

The phone will spend the next few days in an airtight silica gel box in rehab. In the meantime, my contacts are wiped.

Some pics here.

Bird Park on not so Good Friday


We went to the Jurong Bird Park on Good Friday. It was a mistake... long journey, long queues, lots of mosquitos and quite a fair bit of people compared to other days.

There is actually no comparison between Bird Park and the Singapore Zoo. The dismal food available within the Bird Park can't compete with what the Zoo has to offer.

Anyways, some pics here.
