WE VENTURED SOUTH AFRICA, JOHANNESBURG'S LION PARK!
[from the left] our tour guides. i have forgotten his name, alicia, shimin, maddy and me.



well, i would say it was a great experience visiting the lion park in johannesburg. it is something different from the what we see in the Zoo in Singapore. different in such a way that the animals are given the freedom to live, move, eat and sleep in an opened space instead of being locked up behind the cage. because of that, we got to experience and see the real life of these animals as what it is. i was damn excited anyway.











especially so with maddy! love her!



as mentioned, the animals are exposed to the opened area. thus we are definitely not allowed to enter the lion park just like this. if not, all of us would ended up becoming their lunch of the day. (LOL) so we can only enter ourselves into the lion park with a car. despite the fact, there is still a minimal of risk involved.







here we are, inside the lion park.. ROAR!


























omg. i was like only that far away la.
we were lucky though. we managed to catch the feeding time.

















omg. see the way the lioness chew the meat.
