I have very mixed feelings about zoos, but this is very open air and spacious. they also let you feed the animals a special mixture prepared by the zoos vets.

Last but not not least, a little sparrow that had a crumb from one of my many MANY Freddo’s Dolce de Leche ice creams.

Next time — something completely different. Hope to see you here,
