AWESOME AVILON ZOO! - Chapter Uno

HERE WE GO!!!!
We're off to see the wonderful AVILON ZOO!!
ALRIGHT!!
Animal Time!!

We've been sooooo wanting to visit Avilon Zoo for the longest time.
And we finally got our chance to take a gander last Saturday!
BOY.... It was WELL WORTH THE WAIT!!

It's kinda off the beaten Metro Manila path:
WAY OFF!!!

Let's zoom in for an Extreme Satellite Close-up
EGGSTREME...CLOOOOSSE... UUUUUP......

*****************

There are many routes into Avilon.

Here's a tip:
DON"T TAKE THE SAN MATEO ROUTE.

The traffic is way harsh!!
We learned the hard way by choosing the San Mateo-Batasan Rd on d'way there.

I would recommend taking the LITEX Road instead.
It's faster.

And you get to check out the Payatas Dumpsite too.
(Man, that's one sad and huge Mountain of Trash.)
Not too mention all the Trash/Junk Shops Along the way.

And so......
After almost an hour and a half of driving...
And a seething plethora of remarks and questions from the pesteng "cute" :) pasaheros like:
(Cousins Nikki and Raf "Zachy's Bestest Bud" Santamaria accompanied us on the journey)

"Avilon Zoo is so far....."
"Who will win? A Lion or a Saber-tooth Lion?"
"Who will win? An Alligator or a Lion?"

We finally arrived at AVILON ZOO!!
PHEW!
