MakeDaysCount-Dierentuin- Antwerpen

I miss when school was not that busy. Now it's full of tasks, activities and test ( well it's still tiring even tho comparing to the students I'm taking lesser tests ). Het was druk maar vond ik leuk en interessant. 

Wednesday is a half-day school here. ( total opposite from my school in Malaysia cause it was the longest day) So, school ends at 12.05pm. First Wednesday of the school week, after school, we took a quick lunch and headed towards Antwerpen with the train. That took us about 2 hours with a transit.


That's the view from outside




The Antwerpen station is one of the oldest station.
The Zoo is located directly beside the station so we didn't have to walk much.

Entrance.
Besides Singapore, I think this is one of the cleanest zoo I've ever visited. It does not look like a zoo nor smell like a zoo HAHA ! Malaysians, you get what I mean ?
By the time we got to the zoo, we were only able to catch the'elephant feeding time'. In cleanliness and environment wise, Belgium wins it. But Thailand, Singapore and Hong Kong ( for what I have visited so far ) still have the best shows in the Zoo.

                                          

                                           

                                            


                                            

                                             
         
 
Model of the day. :)

Then , the aquarium. Mama taught me the name of the sea creatures in Nederlands. But not sure how much this brain of mine remember...... 








Then the reptiles, birds, monkeys and apes. 
It's so cool that they have a 'speelplaats' for the children which located just outside of the ape zone.




Because the other 2 were ready for camera too :)



This region is the tropical region and it was so humid.
Another POSER of the day- the thinker


This is the mini speelplaats for children. My sister completed the whole hurdle. Got a video of her doing that but its too big of a file to upload.

Near the exits, we found this beautiful place to snap a photo. Papa was the photographer, hence, not in the picture.

Beautiful palace 
The day turns windy and we had to catch the train.

We headed back to the station. Bought waffles while waiting for the train.
Waffles met chocolade met smarties ! LEKKER 

Then comes the train. We hoped on the train and headed back home. Woosh ! It started drizzling. Thank God, it only started raining and pouring after our day ! Tho it was a quick and short afternoon maar het was en prettige dag !
