Kai's first visit to the zoo





These lovely birds were what Kai missed in the zoo.

Kai always liked to watch doggies and chicks, so we thought he would enjoy a zoo, but we were a bit wrong.

After buying the tickets, when we were about to enter the zoo, Kai fell asleep in his comfy pushchair. We felt like disappointed hosts who prepared a feast for guests, who didn't turn up. We decided to enjoy the feast ourselves.


It's a beautiful zoo with nice woods and cool lakes, of course also many unusual birds and animals. When we were watching the birds and taking photos, we thought of Kai. Poor boy, you missed this and this ...


At the end of the birds area, Kai woke up. He was happy to find himself in a complete new place. He looked around at the beautiful birds in the cages, sometimes talk to them, in a language we don't understand, probably the birds do.



Kai quite liked the monkey area. He liked to watch the monkeys leaping skillfully between trees, grooming each other, or simply having a rest in the sun. He also found the golden monkeys from China interesting. The two monkeys were quarrelling to each other, with golden fur shining in the sun.



Walking past the tigers, lions, wolves, wild boars and many other beasts, Kai fell asleep again. It was not his fault. The zoo is huge. I was disappointed again, as I wanted to show him pandas. He has never seen pandas, but he should love pandas. Everyone loves pandas. However, it's possible, Kai wouldn't be impressed by pandas if he was awake. Look, the real panda wasn't as lovely as the artificial ones, was it?
