**a post that I'm suppose to blog on yesterday but was too tired to do so**
We wake up at our usual time this morning, leaving Grace to sleep a little longer. When everyone was up and ready (including taking bath and breakfest), we took off to Zoo Negara. This was my 2nd time to our national zoo while, it was Grace's first visit. I visited this zoo some 20 or more years ago. Wow....how time flies. I was only 9 years old then and today I returned with a child.
We reached our destination at about 10.30am, and as the Multi-Animal show will be on 11am, we headed straight to the amphitheater. One the way there, we noted some not very colourful aquariums containing a number of giant fish. Grace immediately got scared. I knew it! She sure will get scared. She even refused to see the penguins!
While waiting for the animal show, all off us tried our very best to let Grace calm down and hopefully enjoy the show and the whole visit to the zoo. And it did worked! She likes the show and enjoy most of the walk around the zoo. Just a little timid while at the fresh water aquarium.
We later took the tram ride then some small walk to see all that is in the zoo. It was a great exprerience for Grace. She was so full of energy and did not take a nap (which we expected she would) during the ride to IKEA.
It was way pass her nap time when we reach The Curve (a shopping mall adjecent to IKEA), for our lunch (which is like 2 hours overdue). She was still walking around, playing and making lots of small actions. While at IKEA, my parents tried to make her sleep but she refused.
The finally at about 5.30pm, Grace told me she wants to sleep, and soon she was in dreamland with Gong Gong carrying her while her mummy finish up her shopping.
It was like 9pm when we finally reach home. Wow! What a long day!
Nope, that's not the end yet. We had my cousins over for late dinner and Grace was still able to behave herself during dinner and having small play with her cousin.
Grace end her day at about 11pm.

You are right, it was over 20 years ago when we went to Zoo Negara! I think I still have that photo of the Giraffe.
Can't wait to see some photos....
