Cowboy Town

14th November 2013


The next day, we visited the Cowboy Town in the evening.

The entrance looked beautiful and was well decorated with Halloween and mid-autumn festival.  However, everything else falls apart as we entered.  The park is rather small with nothing much to see.  Many shops are closed and things are not properly maintained.  It just lacked of a strong gust of cold wind from the desert to create a real cowboy scene.

They charge exhorbitant prices for everything. Every ride needs to be paid separately besides the high entrance fee.

Our brave little girl wanted to try the trampoline

As though the trampoline is not scary enough, Elyse sat on the bull for only about 5 mins before she was thrown down

One last ride for the night

There were only two free highlights for the day:-
8.30 Red Indian Show &
9.15 Carnival show

Both at the same place one after another.

By 8:30pm, we were already seated comfortably waiting for the excitement to roll in. After about 10 minutes, the Carnival Show started with a bang by the Red Indians performing the heady fire-blowing act. These brave warriors were blowing flames from their mouths and also fire-eating.  Though the show was not really impressive to me, bravo to the performers who kept spitting fire and putting out the fire on sticks using their mouth.

Then here comes the ever-draggy carnival that made us wondered when is it going to end - elephants, horses, orangutans, clowns, mascots, dancers, colourful floats and many more.

Before the Carnival Show ends, audience was asked to do a countdown from 5 for the fireworks display. It all lasted for a mere 10 minutes and the whole show ended at about 10:20pm.

Honestly, we were quite disappointed with this Cowboy Town.  Looks like this would definitely be our last time here.
