Haf and I wanted to go to the zoo and Davao Crocodile Park is an amazing place to see different kinds of animals. We paid around 150 pesos to access these places (Davao Crocodile Park, Butterfly House, Tribu 'K Mindanawan)There's so much to see at Davao Crocodile Park. Haf was really amused seeing the tigers and not only we get to see at close with the tigers but we learned alot from the zookeeper as well. They have weekend shows like crocodile feeding frenzy, Koi Fish Feeding Frenzy, Crocodile Dance,
We also had picture taking with parrots, snake, and crocodile (ofcourse the mouth of the crocs is sealed with a tape). There are lots of birds, crocodiles, ostrich, deer, lots of snakes, and orangutans, and a tortoise, and also fishes. Its a perfect place to enjoy for the little ones and for the young at hearts too.
Davao Crocodile Park also have a mini snack shop and also you could buy a wallet made of crocodile's skin and belts and etc.
One of the most exciting part that me and Haf did was to try their Crocodile Icecream (i just forgot the price~lol) All I can say is~ its creamy and the crocodile meat is chewy. We also tried the "poop coffee" the Civet Coffee, one of the most expensive and has an exquisite taste which is a partly digested coffee cherries eaten and defecated by the Asian palm civet. If you want to try an exotic lechon... You Must TRY the CROCODILE LECHON! Its really fun to try out new and exotic things which indulges the heart of the Adventure seekers out there!
The fun never stops here, next we went to the Butterfly House. It's really nice place to enjoy the colorful butterflies and actually see a scorpions and a tarantula. They also have a mini pond and lots of flowers too. I hope they can renovate the butterfly house because it has always been the same since I had my field trip when I was in highschool.
Next, we went to the Tribu K' Mindanawan and explored the ancient relics of our ancestors like the different tribal houses. When it was almost evening lots of people gathered at the event area to see the Fire Show/ Fire Dancing. It was so awesome and very well -choreographed. Its really fun to watch them and they really entertained us well. And I almost forgot before the fire dance they had mini games for the people and Haf was one of the "chosen ones" to play a game. It was really fun to look at him playing at the center stage and luckily he won the game and everyone was cheering him--of course me too! And yeah he won tickets to Maxima Aqua Fun, ZipCity, Davao Crocodile park, Butterfly House, and Tribu K' Mindanawan. But wait, I had a chance to get a prize too, because they had like a mini lecture about Fire safety and I dared to answer their question as quickly as possible and got my prize! I was happy like a kid and didn't spare a sweat to get my prize -lol.
And so after were amazed by the Fire show we headed to their restaurant and had our dinner date. The food is good but quite expensive tho. They also had a acoustic band to serenade the people who are eating there.
All in all these experience was the most amazing thing ever. We were both happy and had amazing stories to share for everyone when we got home.
