Finally....continue on with our journey to Taman Safari (Safari Park) in Bogor Indonesia
After we left Raffles Resto, Gallery and Catering, we went straight to the Safari Park.
Entrance fees for those above 6 years old was :
Rp140,000(around RM45) for local
Rp250,000(Around RM80) for international visitor.
Entrance Fees for kids 5 years old and below was :
Rp130,000(around RM40) for local
RP230,000(RM75) for international visitors.
Lucky for us as we were charged local visitors fees. Even if with International Visitors fees, it was real worth it as the fees includes touring the safari; watching various animals performance(elephants show, tiger & Lion Show, Sea lion show, birds of prey show, Dolphin show, Cowboy show, Globe of death show & various animals shows), Safari trekking and to play 24 type rides from the Amusement Park.
I bet if Auntie Lina's family were there, they will sure go for Safari Trekking.
There was even a Water Park in there but that one have to pay separate entrance fees la
Now I sound like advertising the place pulak. But then just wait till you scroll down the page and see all the fun we have had...and the most amazing part is we didn't even cover all the activities offered there as we ran out of time.
I was very excited...wanna feed the animals there
Errrr....elephants eats carrot ka?
Apparently they do.
Then one lady with pretty eyes and long eye lashes came up to me and say...Hi! handsome...maybe I have some carrot please.
And then one become two..two become three...
Hi! my dear...you also want carrot?
Among all, we find that Zebra have the nicest table manners as Zebra would take time to chew its food and swallow first before asking for more.
HUH?
Hippo also wanna eat carrot?
WOw! he sure have BIG BALLS horns.
Some place were slightly flooded by water from the mountain
Lucky Papa was clever as he bought one whole big bunch of bananas coz not even 1/4 of the route we had already given all the bananas and carrots that the driver helped us to buy earlier.
There were loads of animals there to be fed...zebra, deer, Tapir, camel, cassowary, bear, orangutan, giraffe, nyala, sheep, ostrich ...
Speaking or ostrich...they sure have very sharp teeth/beak leh....I was bitten by one before...that was when I was very young.
Feeding all these animals sure makes me hungry leh...errr....well...if the animals can eat the bananas...so can I lah.
Mamarazzi said she wanna snap photo of a "monkey" wor
Faster...roll up the windows.
Next come the Lion ..
And Tiger place....
Soon we came to the end of our journey...but the other part was just beginning.
I wanted to ride the Elephants. Papa asked the price ...aborted coz if not mistaken it was around RM80 for 15 minutes ride. Another one was RM10 or something for 5 minute ride.
Instead I went for the free rides in the Amusement Park. Each rides can got on for one time only.
But I got to play more than once coz Papa gave me his wrist ban as he is not playing
Forced to smile coz Papa and Mamarazzi wanna move on to another part of the Safari. I haven't even finish playing all the rides leh.
Caught a "train" that bring us right up to the top of the mountain . Yup! That's where the Cowboy show was located.
After getting down from the "train" we still had to climb up a pretty steep mini slope.
No more energy liao....feeling like the Leopard liao.
Let's go! No more photo!
While waiting for the gate to open, Mamarazzi continued snapping photo...la....doesn't understand the word no ka?
Why wanna sit so high...sit here la....nearer to the performance.
But then in the end it was lucky that we sat quite high coz the performance involves several explosions. The heat from the explosion was quite hot. There were a few explosion in the water. Those who sat in the first few rows got "free shower" when the explosions happens.
Though the entire show was in Indonesian language, I still find that t was very enjoyable. The actions made me laughed. Well done!
After the show, Papa asked if Mamarazzi want to catch the Globe of Death Show. She didn't want. All those bike zooming in the Globe...errr.....no lah...better bring me to the Amusement Park.
After a few rounds of kiddie rides, I was starting to feel bored. Wanted to play something more "challenging". The zooming Space Shuttle looks fun leh. Can hear many people screaming when the ship went "WHOOOSH!". Too bad I can't play coz did not meet the minimum height.
Papa and Mamarazzi was exhausted. They sat there resting while waiting for my "battery" to run out. They didn't know where my "off" button is.
It must have been all the exercise coz I came and gobbled up the meatballs from Papa's bowl of bakso.
Nooooo....I am not tired yet. I wanna play some more...there is that "house" everyone going in there...I wanna go in and see leh...Naughty Mamarzzi said it's "Haunted house"....but I don't believe la..I am not scared leh...
But Papa and Mamarazzi said no...we have to move on coz have to go to Bandung from there leh.
Supposed to visit the Flower Garden at Puncak but abandoned the plans coz Mamarazzi was exhausted and the sun was setting.
For those who wish to go for this Taman Safari, it's best to plan your activities and go early in the morning. Check the shows timetable ; then you will have more time to explore.
Wah...when we got back to the car..we discovered that not only Papa friend provided us with the transport for the day but he had also given up two BIG boxes of tarts!
I must say...the bakery over there really took their time and give it all they got when they made these tarts. It's just so dainty and taste real good. Hmm...my sweet "lunch" at sunset.
Next stop.......
