A Trip to Miri Crocodile Farm

One of the places-to-go-before-going-home-for-the-long-holidays was to the Miri Crocodile Farm. It is not far from Senadin but still I haven't step foot there yet. So, Catherine and I planned for a short half a day visit to the farm on the 26th November 2008. 

...the entrance...

...the wristband...

We drove to the farm which was about 10-15 minutes drive from home and paid RM10 per person to enter. First of all, the ticket counter was just so freaky - snakes and monitor lizards coming out from the counter - it's fake by the way, but eewie - read several newspaper clippings about crocodiles and saw some crocodile skeletons. There was a sign post too!


It was also my first time getting so close to crocodiles - was standing on top of the wooden platform with huge crocodiles just right below my foot! Had a stroll around the farm and saw some other animals and OMG! There was a snake on the wood where people can go and touch them - BUT there were no one around with the snake!

...feeding the fishes...

We had souvenirs too from the farm - MOSQUITO BITES!


It was a short walk, though. Finished the farm in about less than 2 hours. We drove into a small-tiny-little town and ended up at a jetty. It was pretty. 

...the jetty at Baram (if I'm right lah~)...

Another exploration and I think, there's nothing in Miri to explore anymore... 
*still searching*
