Achievement! I finally got around to uploading my photos from Korea after wrestling with Facebook's stupid interface for hours.
Warning: Lots of photos coming through~
Safari stuff:
!
! SIMBA AND NALA!
There was a small group of lions resting. Only two were male; the rest were lionesses. The guide said that one of the lions was the newly crowned head of the pride, and the other one, which was much older and more tired-looking, was the old retired king. That seriously gave me Lion King vibes. :P

! Whitetigerswhitetigerswhitetigers
So happy I finally saw them irl :):)
!
! This is a liger! It has a tiger's body with a lion's face. I think.
!
! Badly taken picture cause I kept moving to get a view from the bus, but this bear waved at us!! (In exchange for food pellets.)
!
! Parakeets eating from my mom's hand~ They were really small and so pretty :)
We also visited three gardens in total, which were just so beautiful~

!
! I was pleasantly surprised to find forget-me-nots in the herb garden; they're so tiny but they're my favourite flowers :):)
We also went to feed sheep!
Which taught me that sheep can be really calm, but also ridiculously violent. They knocked the feeding cup out of my sister's hands. I had to use all my arm strength to prevent them from doing the same to me D:
!
! This one was the calmest one around. It was tethered to a post just for tourists to pet and take pictures with. It was even trained to look at the camera XD
!
!
! They're so scary D: I've completely revised my opinion of sheep.
We also went to this drawing show thing, which turned out much better than I had expected. It's about a group of guys who are just amazingly creative, and use various mediums to draw and paint in front of the audience while doing whacko entertaining dances and jokes.
!
! This picture is actually made up of four boards, which they painted not only separately but also upside down / sideways before putting it all together. It was even cooler cause while painting they'd run around splashing paint on each other's boards mischievously, but the end result all fit together.
!
! Little Mermaid! One of my favourites. It's actually a cutout from a big sheet that they dribbled liquidy-paint and ink on, so that it formed a big painting of an underwater scene (including a fish that looked like Flounder). Then they tore off part of the sheet so that this remained.
I'm terrible at explaining it but I assure you that it was awesome.
! Tigertigertiger! I think he did this with a piece of charcoal. It was so cool to watch the process live.
I also found someone on AP in Korea :D
! A mischievous-looking little fox~
!
! Kittyxvor
!
! Proudly triumphing over his fellow species.
! This was so cute, I actually bought this and brought it home. It is now best friends with my duckie. They love roasting marshmallows together.
There. Done. disappears
