The Park

  
We were the only guests last night, which meant the chef cooked just for us this morning. It felt indulgent πŸ™‚

There’s a big park just down the road from the B&B with lots to see and do, including a highly rated zoo. The day was lovely so we walked there. 

 
That’s taken in their limited ‘Birds From Down Under’ exhibit, where you could feed all sorts of Oz parrots. It was fun! 

 
The rest of the zoo was great too, with a good selection of animals (including unusual ones like aoudad and takin) in a nicely designed space. It took us about 4 hours to see it all and was well worth the trip.

Afterward we headed just up a hill to a nearby museum. It wasn’t very popular but was air conditioned! The majority of the exhibits were based around a massive display of (admittedly impressive) stuffed animals: 

 
But we were there to see the planet show! It was a smallish theater but I loved the show since it was focused on the night sky and the narration was wonderful. Plus we were sitting down in the AC for the first time in many hours πŸ™‚ 

 
We also had planned on visiting the botanical gardens in the park but ran out of time. Too much for one day, I suppose.

I’m super tired now. It’s going to be an effort writing all these postcards πŸ™‚
