And we spotted this lonely looking Polar Bear in the Antartic section. A few Arctic foxes and Snow Owls can be found there too. Because I had managed to get lost a couple of times during this particular visit and we were very tired, we took the Bicycle Cab home. A very environment- friendly way of transport. :)
Thanks for all your lovely comments about my Jackalope! I will share a picture of it's progress tomorrow!

A zoo within 8 minutes and a bicycle cab? How different from where I live! I'd be at the zoo a lot too, it's at least a 2 hour drive for us :(
ReplyDeleteThe closest zoo for us is about a 7 hour drive!!
ReplyDeleteI've never heard of the Manul either, and Zoe is right, he is a lot like the Cheshire cat!
Poor Polar bear. :-( There was something on the news yesterday about a lonely polar bear in a zoo somewhere in the UK (Edinburgh perhaps?) - they moved him up to the Scottish Highlands and he's happy as can be now. :-D
I just came across your site from your interview with Feeling Stitchy. I was reading this post about the zoo and it reminded me that someone recently suggested we get a family pass at the zoo near us...then I saw your picture at the bottom and realized it's probably the same zoo!! Is it the blijdorp zoo? Small world :-) (We live in Delft.)
ReplyDeleteIt is Blijdorp Zoo :) and I can recommend getting a family pass (well actually you get individual cards for each family member)! There is so much to see there, you will not regret it...
