New Year's Eve Fireworks Viewing

The view isn't as close-up as a rooftop bar, but you'll still get a good glimpse of the fireworks over the Petronas Towers. Alternatively, some of the higher floors of hotels further away from the main celebration areas might offer decent views from their restaurants without the rooftop bar crowds.

Nah, you're not losing it. Bird parks are big, and sometimes enclosures aren't perfectly distinct.

Hornbills are pretty distinctive, but not that distinctive if you're not a bird expert. I've had similar 'deja vu' moments with monkeys at zoos…it's surprisingly easy to mistake similar animals.
