Trip to Miri – photolog 11 – The real Crocodile Farm

27 01 2008

This is Maureen, and her husband – great friends of ours.  They took all of us for some famous prawn mee – it really looked great, and I took some pics of the big enormous prawns.  A pity I had no chance to try it cos I’m allergic to prawns :(

After the breakfast, we went to the local market (which I will blog about next) where we met Ah Hui’s brother.  Next was Canada Hill and after that, it was the REAL crocodile farm (we’d already seen the one in Ah Hui’s house, lol) – only it was not just a crocodile farm – they also had snakes, geese, monkeys, snakes, rabbits, cassowary (according to the guiness book of records, it is the most dangerous bird on earth) and of course, plenty of crocodiles – some were reared for consumption. 

Personally I felt the animals were all better behaved than our Allan & Friends’ group on that day…… you should have seen them making  a ruckus, annoying the crocodiles and confusing the monkeys!

We noticed that he walked like Quinton – or is it the other way round? – no, I’m not joking, all of us immediately identified Quinton with the bear when it started to walk……… toe-d in
