Christmas 2011: ZOOBIC

Follow my blog with Bloglovin

Oh my Goodness! I can't believe I'm only posting this now...Anyway,So my family only go to the same places every yuletide season. Actually, It's only either Baguio City or Subic; and last 2011, SUBIC WON! However, this year, we only went there for a day just so the family will be able to go out of town just like what we are used to every year. 

We've decided to go to Zoobic just like in 2010. 

The travel time from our place to Subic is only around 2 1/2 hours to 3 hours. We left at 5am and arrived there at around 7 or 8 in the morning. We first had breakfast, then proceeded to Zoobic just as planned.

When you get inside Zoobic Safari, you will first be having a group picture which will be taken FOR FREE; but the PICTURE, you have to pay. Hahaha! After that,you will be grouped according to the people that you're with (We were called the"Althemar" Group..hehe...). You will have an orientation, and after that the walking tour (which  would take up around 2 hours)would then begin.

When we went there last year, the animals were sort of placed differently. They must have re-arranged the animals already. 

Here are the pics! =)

After the first part of the tour, the next part would be the TIGER SAFARI, where you will ride in a caged jeepney and enter in a close-fenced area where tigers are freely roaming around. You will be given a choice to ride the TRAM (fee is 50 peses per person), or you can also bring your own car. (We've decided to ride in our own car ). You will ride in a jeepney either containing only your group (when you are many) or be joined by another group. You will be asked if you would like to have the tiger fed with a chicken which would cost 200php. The thrill this time, by the way, was not as much as  the last time we were there. Probably because this time, we already know what would happen, and the tigers were a bit tamed (probably because they have already been fed).

 (Oxie cried beacuse he said that he wanted to ride the "train"; so he and his nanay got to ride on it on the way back..and for free! hahaha!)

After the Tiger Safari, the next is the Aetas Trail, where the natives will be performing their tribal dance. Okay, a little spoiler: they will have a "surprising" performance, which again did not surprise us that much anymore. But nevertheless, the aetas were very great! =)

The last part is the Croco Loco part, where you can also feed the crocodiles. They are very strong by the way! whew! WILD!

That wraps up my post about my Christmas last year. Christmas is definitely the season to be JOLLY and HAPPY...Advance Merry Christmas Everyone! =)
