Flashback Friday #3 – Travelling in Zambia
I mentioned in my previous flashback friday post that i nearly got kicked by a zebra. So, this week… thought i’ll show you the zebras and the close proximity we were in at the hotel (zambezi sun) during my stay while travelling in Zambia.
wild zebras roaming around the hotel grounds.
watching and observing them in such close proximity is an amazing experience.
my uncle discreetly approaching.
ta-dah! Zebra butt.
The zebra in the last picture is the one that attempted to kick me. Seconds after i took this image, i happened to turn and walk away. That moment was when the zebra lifted his hind legs and gave a kick. thankfully, i was out of range.
its very liberating and refreshing to be near wild animals at such close proximity without any sort of barrier. you can even walk alongside them like they are your friends as they graze. other than zebras, there were giraffe, monkeys and deers. but of cos, in case you are wondering.. the hotels make you sign a indemnity form upon check in together with a long list of rules pertaining to the wild animals. It’s really observe at your own risk and i definitely am not recommending that you touch them, as much as i was very tempted to.
Missing the experience bad. Will be blogging a really interesting monkey that i see in the next flashback friday, so stay tuned. Meanwhile, TGIF people!

Hi there! Thanks for popping by. I'm Cherie, a ftwm (full-time working mum) to 3 lovely kids (2 boys & a princess) and my motto in life is to BE HAPPY. Sure, life isn't all that smooth but it's the mentality that counts, no? This blog documents my life. Or rather, snippets of my life that has passed me by. I love capturing life memories in the blog and being able to read back and laugh at myself (or anyone). I love to eat (A LOT), travel and paint my own nails so the blog is mostly about that. Is that considered lifestyle? Of cos, the family is also very much an integral part of me so there would be loads of memories about the husband and my kids - Jerry (9yo), Jerome (7yo) and Leia (2.5yo) and everyone else that's close to me. I like documenting the kids' milestones, their growing up years, their achievements (and sometimes, mine), and my struggles and battles with motherhood. It sure ain't easy. I love seeking out good food and travelling, is trigger-happy, love new gadgets, love exploring new places and strives to live life to the fullest. I aspire to travel the world as much as I can, to soak in the different sights across the various continents and visit all the Disneylands in the world (almost there!). Have fun reading and do drop me a comment to say hi! Love, Cherie Lim Find me on Instagram.
