A trip to Taiping Zoo

The last time that we were at Taiping Zoo was in August last year and Heidi was only 1 year and 4 months then. She did not remember much of it, so now that she's bigger and able to appreciate this kind of thing better, we decided to take them again since it's the school holidays. I took 2 days off work last week and we went on a Monday to avoid the weekend crowds. Helene stayed with her nanny as we didn't want to bring her in case it got too hot.

This was Hannah's 5th time at Taiping Zoo and Heidi's 2nd time. Much of the zoo was the same as before. The orang utan was still at the same place, as with most of the other animals.

Heidi's getting to be very chatty and cheeky nowadays. I asked her to smile for the camera and this is what I got:

Nicer smile here while having a snack:

There was quite a lot of renovation going on. One new thing we noticed was that the elephants had been relocated and they had a nice new home at the zoo, complete with a mini waterfall. Such a cool treat on hot days.

Of course we took many selfies and wefies lol :)

Here's one of all of us, missing Helene. But we will definitely bring her here once she's bigger!
