Office Outing – River Safari

River Safari has become one of the latest attractions in Singapore and our company has the honor to one of the sponsor for the animals housed there. We sponsored the Jaguar which is one of the cool animals there and you will only get to view it on the river boat ride.

We were all set to leave for the event and our little one is all excited about seeing the Pandas again though we told her that she will get to see the Jaguar while cruising on the river boat ride. When we arrived at the event venue, we were given the priority to get on the river boat ride after the cheque presentation ceremony and speech by our Yasuno GM. This would be his final event as our GM for he will be leaving for Tokyo to start his new assignment in April.
We heard that the river boat ride took many to queue for hours but today, we are glad that we to ride without to queue. I was somehow looking forward to the ride as it wasn’t ready when we visited last year. Initially I thought it will be so cool to ride on it but it was quite a disappointment when it was briefly a boat ride travelling to some small tunnels where you are able to view the Jaguar through the glass window. There are other animals outdoors but the boat ride was too fast to catch a glimpse of each animal.

After the boat ride, we were given the free time to move around till lunch time. We brought Faith to check out her Pandas and man… she was so excited. We were lucky enough to catch both Kai Kai & Jia Jia in action. We too went to the aquarium to get some air-condition and took some rest.



Our lunch venue was at their function room on the lower level and it was a pity that there weren’t enough tables and chairs for everyone. With that limited chairs and tables, everyone sat on the floor and it reminded me of my days in school where we used to sit on the quadrangular during our recess.
Anyway, this is quite eventful and Faith enjoyed herself thoroughly as she got to see her Pandas and other interesting animals though this is our second visit to River Safari.
