Puncak
After hearing many great reviews of the area just south of us, we decided to spend our long weekend in the mountains. The hills were covered by tea plantations and there were beautiful views. Hidden beyond the traffic was a magical place unlike any we have been to.
Taman Safari (Safari Park)
Set into the hills is a wildlife preserve/zoo. This place has it all: lions, tigers, bears, oh my, monkeys, pygmy hippos, zebras, giraffes, elephants, and more. You begin by taking a "safari" through acres of free-ranging animals. You drive for half an hour through different habitats getting a close-up view of the wild animals. After the drive, there's a whole other area of the park filled with live animal shows and smaller animal habitats.

| You can pay $1.50 to pet and take pictures with baby animals. |

| So we did, three times. A beautiful White Tiger cub. |

| This is how we felt by the end of the day. |
