New Zealand Day 3: Mek Mek Agrodome
Posted by blurcheryl in Holidays, New Zealand on December 8, 2011
KIA ORA!!!
Pls bring the screen close close and kiss the Alpacas!!
So cute right?
Look so clean too, I almost kiss that animal with my camera.
Here we are at Agrodome before heading to Taupo. I love to visit Zoo, and by all means I will not miss my chance to go for Farm Tour either, therefore everybody have to follow. I think animal watching /petting is fun! wahahahaha.
FYI, it is more convenient to drive to Agrodome before going to Wai-O-tapu but we got conned by the Lady Knox Geyser eruptions clock and here we are, de-tour back to Rotorua town.
When the tour bus takes us to the farm, these pets came running towards us because they knew there’s FOOD!!
Okay.. we didn’t get down here to feed those cows. Dont be crazy.. they are dangerously huge and not cute. I dont hate cows .. I love cow milk.
Say hello to Alpacas again!! (Alpaca is actually from the camel family). The alpacas hair which grows on its forehead very useful -like a hat. Very sunny hor..
We get to feed the alpacas, sheeps, merinos… hug them also can. Well I didn’t give those sheep much attention.
Can you see those Ostrich eggs? Its huge!!
“Look at me.. Look at me.. I have long long hairy neck 
ngek ngek ngek”
The farm tour ends with a short tour of its orchard (not interesting at all) and honey plus wine tasting.
After Agrodome, next stop Huka in Taupo before we call it a night.

Mini Zoo Kuantan
Posted by blurcheryl in Cuti Cuti Malaysia on August 5, 2011
If you visit Kuantan, dont miss the Mini Zoo in Taman Teruntum, because …………….
It is Free!!
You can see Sun Bear!
Coming from Kuantan town, you will pass by the mini zoo before reaching the Teluk Cempedak. This place is hard to miss and they have a huge road sign at the side of the road.
Not entirely well maintained zoo but I still find it still worthwhile to visit, its run by the government I presume still its not a bad to add this attractions to your itinerary. No rush right? Btw parkings are ample, free also.
Anything and anywhere free you must go (kiasu).
Here’s another few shots of the cute sun bear. I wonder if I can keep one of his nails? Just a thought!
I am not sure what bird is this. Is this a hawk? This place is like a vacation home for the squirrels because they can easily find food here. I saw a pair of hornbill too.
What is this animal call already ah? Cannot recall. Okay.. its the otter (Thanks Mel)
A pair of duck, Sang Kancil (mouse deer) and baby goose.
Deers, Porcupines and Ostriches
Bought a bunch of long bean and fed the deers.
Visiting this mini zoo will only take you 30 minutes!

My Sun bear
Posted by blurcheryl in Cuti Cuti Malaysia, Holidays on August 4, 2011
Okay the sun bear wasn’t mine. . but I always find the opportunity to go to the Kuantan Mini Zoo to look at the sun bear. I dont understand why the rest of my Kuantan family members find it hilarious whenever I said I want to go see the sun bear. I only saw the sunbear in Kuantan zoo summo its free!! I can just drive in, park my car which I dont need to pay at all and walk up to the sun bear enclosure.
That day the sun bear has a bit more ‘action’ than usual.
The standing pose
The sitting pose
The hungry face pose
The sun bear is so cute!!
