Our weekend !

Saturday was nothing exciting, so I'll move right along to today (Sunday).

We went to the zoo ! The weather wasn't the greatest, but I was actually quite happy that it wasn't scorching hot or muggy - there was even a bit of a shower towards the end of our visit, but nothing major.

Anyway, best show you some of our pictures then ;)


Momma giraffe and her baby


Springbok having their lunch (and kindly sharing with some pea-hens)


Rhinoceros on the move !


Now I'm not sure which elephant this is, Kashin or Burma, but I *think* it's Kashin.


Now these guys were the coolest ! Smelly, but *very* cute, and we just happened to catch them all right at feeding time.


This one was my favorite, such a poser for the camera !


Awww, aren't they sweethearts? (Cotton topped tamarinds)


If you look very closely, next to the keepers boot on the right, you'll see a genuine Kiwi bird - and yes, they are endangered (but of course they run an extensive breeding programme at the zoo).


The elusive red panda


Mr Meerkat on his perch


And last but not least - a hungry hippo ! :D


Anyway, loading those photos took forever - so we're both going to hit the sack, work tomorrow and all the usual stuff.

Love,

J, R & Baby "It"
