Folks, It was my first visit to the zoo and I guess the animals really enjoyed the day more than we did. They were sitting snug in their caves or lying on water troughs while we braved the 40 degree sun and walked the whole length of the Vandaloor zoo twice. Whoo was it hot out there.
We started out with a nice lion safari that went into a Jurassic park like enclosure and it was thrilling to see lions on both sides of the bus. Though Amma and i were very scared, Appa took care of us and very bravely snapped a couple of photographs as well. The lions seemed to obey his every command and modelled for him. Well Well Well !!! Brave Dad ....

After the safari, we went back to the zoo where we saw birds, giraffes, elephants, ostriches,reindeer, a hippo, storks and a monkey family to boot.
