Zoo visit

Yesterday Sarah, Daniel and I visited the Singapore Zoo. It is well kept and large. I noticed a large number of foreign turist also visiting, the majority were European.

At the entrance there was a plaque remembering Steve Irwin (Crocodile Hunter) because he was the driving force to create that Australian sanctuary in Singapore. He indeed reached very far away from Australia,
