Yawn Gai Gai: River Safari


I am quite a fan of cute stuff, so I literally jumped at the chance to visit River Safari cos there were Tsum Tsum being plastered around the area. Best of all, if you finished the Bingo, you will get a luggage bag tag. If I were a friend of the River Safari, I might have gone every week in December to collect all the luggage bag tags. 

In term of aesthetics, I think the Mickey and Minnie Tsum Tsum was the cutest, but we missed it. So I settled for my favourite Disney character of all time - Stitch :D. Pss, the other merchanise were sold at a pretty affordable price and the old tokidoki merch even had a nice discount. If my new house wasn't on its way, I might have just bought the store down. Hehe. 


Just to share a bit more, at most station you would have to take a photo doing specific poses. It is really difficult if you are coming by yourself. But, generally, everyone is pretty helpful and we got quite a few good photos. Some of the tsum tsum feature aren't actually Bingo points but they were so cute, I was like let's waste time on it. Hehe.

Being excessive as usual, I even wore a tsum tsum on my head. Some dressing advice, try to pack light and wear shorts/pants because there are quite a bit of motions if you wanna clear your bingo points (i.e. jump shots). It was raining that day, hence we had to lug around our umbrella cos I packed light using my Ecosusi Bag (Read more about it here!). River Safari is 90% sheltered, in retrospect, we could have taken a a risk and not bring the umbrella. 


Apart from the Tsum Tsum standees, there is not much additional attractions at the River Safari. The pandas and red pandas still holds our affection. In a desperate attempt, I tried to take a selfie with the red panda. I was a bit bummed that my camera choose to focus on me instead of the red panda. T.T

If haven't been to River Safari, one of the star attraction is also the river ride. Personally, I find the ride quite tranquil. It might be quite slow and boring for some people cos there isn't much animal action at the riverbank. But since you paid for it, you must as well go on the ride since it is free. Hehe. 


It has been quite a while since I last stepped into River Safari so everything seems pretty fresh. I was quite excited at this "new" arena where you get to catch monkeys and mousedeers? roaming around freely. We spotted a preggy one that is due for labour soon. But guess luck wasn't on my side and I didn't get to witness the birth for myself. T.T Overall, this was still a fun break with the Hubs. Can't wait for more fun times, although quite honestly sometimes going out too much drains me. Hehe.
