It was a lovely day and my friends agreed to accompany me to the crocodile park. Its far so we decided to take a taxi to the park.

As usual the foriegners are charged more.

The park has huge collection of crocodiles, infact the pathway is over the crocodile place and made of wood, one crack in the wood planks and you are shared food for hundreds of crocodile. I saw crocs fighting for a dead croc, they were reaping apart one of the dead ones.

The park has variety of crocs and also a show which is really daring one.
They have special trainers handling crocodile and they play, lift the croc, infact at the end, the trainer puts his hand and head in the jaw of crocs.

I had a good time at the elephant show and I did one of the daring thing, i.e. lying down on the ground and elephant walking over me. Please note that he can see in front, but does not know whats between his front and rear legs and that moment was freeking moment. One small mistake and I was history.

Over all it was fun and I also tried Crocodile soup out there. The crocodile flesh almost taste like chicken and it is white flesh.
