Jong's Crocodile Farm + Ranchan Park ( 16 dec )

Jo's friend invited us for a double date with him and his gf, Yukiko who is from Japan.
She's currently having a break so she visited Kuching.
She's quite pretty despite her 'down-to-earth' fashion style ( yea, i expect a more modern japanese gal wat )
And she's really polite and shy.

Our plan for that day is to bring her to Jong's crocodile Farm and Ranchan.

It has been raining quite a lot in Kuching lately and it rained for a whole day that day. =(
Really spoil my mood. haih..

We paid Rm10 ( i think ) for the entrance fee.
There's a small gallery about crocodiles just past the entrance.


Preserved croc's eggs

the photos says it all..


the couple spend quite a lot of time at the gallery and so Jo n i began to camwhore around while waiting for them.


see...i bring along my red-crocodile to meet his friends !

with some large posters..

whose mouth is bigger?


We then wandered off to the children's place..


a nice entrance with 2 small crocodiles on top of the ceiling..

Just a small place filled with small tame animals, no crocodiles



Yukiko doesn't really like the smell of these farm animals thought...
so we proceed to see the meaner beasts instead.


white crocodile...which doesn't really look white...

tailess crocodile..which looks kinda cute...

a cluster of small crocodiles..


There's also some other animals to see beside crocodiles.

I love this otter a lot. so cute!

Malayan sunbear, one of the smallest bear species in the world.


There's also a small bird sanctuary.


nothing much to see...just some ducks, chickens and peacocks


My favorite animal of all...Cassowary of New Guinea.

isn't he handsome?

look like me kah? =P


after 'birds', came fishes.


a large pond full of 'Jing long yu' ( gold dragon fish...whatever )

and water lilies

the couple feeding the fishes

finally spotted the huge fish

camwhore while waiting for the couple to finish feeding the fishes

me me me!

crocodiles lurking everywhere...

wild boars..

While we're watching the wild boars, A mischievous monkey jumped into the cage and started to pull one of the wild boar's nose!
and of course the wild boar got angry and pushed the monkey away.
After that the monkey stayed and began to look for lices on the wild boar's body.
Damn funny and cute ^^




and this, is my favourite crocodile of all....

Taman Rekreasi Ranchan


It's actually a forest where u can play with cool mountain water.
and by luck there aren't much people around so we can practically have the whole place to ourselves.


a hanging bridge..

with spectacular view below...

small 'waterfall'

see, the couple can have the whole place to themselves.. ( ok i know i'm spying..lalala )

Jo and i had the upper part of the stream instead

i love the ray of sunlight!!!

nice..

lalala...i'm the goddess of sunlight...whatever...

I didn't bring any spare clothes to change, which i regretted a lot.
it rains heavily when the time we're about to leave. sigh. I hate rainy days.


We had BBQ at night with the rest of Jo's friends.
But Jo and I leave before the BBQ started as we're having a huge fight. lalala....



Ok la, the end. =P
