San Diego Zoo

Out of professional interest I just HAD to visit the world-famous (so they call themselves) zoo in San Diego.50 hectares of top-notch animal keeping, 400 different species, a lot of edu-tainment (more heavily on the “tainment” side though), it’s worth a visit despite the hefty entrance fee.

Most residents of the zoo would win the prize for “laziest animals ever”, as they were fast asleep during most of the time. Others were pretty active, such as the hippo (please note that they are vegetarians, and only if you look closely you will see that I coincidentally took a picture that looks like the hippo is eating the child’s reflection!). The underwater-hippos were the coolest thing in the zoo, apart from the pandas. Yes, they are just cute. And the mothers are pretty authoratitive educators, she just kicked that little panda right of the branch when he wasn’t doing like she said.

  1. Yes Flurina is right, that Mamma Panda was very tough on that little guy and blumps he fell of the tree. They are very cute and very big bears. This was my first time that I have seen a Panda Bear! Suzanne
