Auckland Zoo

On Friday Robin, Mama, Papa and I went to the Auckland Zoo. When we got there we went to the Flybuys Van and Mama and Papa scanned their Flybuys Cards to win a prize. Then we went and saw the tigers and went through the Aussie Walkabout, but prior to that we read Janie the Chimpanzee had passed away in October and I felt very sad. Then we went and saw the beautiful birds in the aviary. They were pretty. Next we did the Te Wao Nui exhibit which is new. I liked the Kiwi House best. Later on we saw the serval cats, hippos and the cheetahs. My favourite ones were the cheetahs. Then we went down to see Burma but she was on a walk around the zoo. We found her near the Te Wao Nui exhibit. Then we went and saw the zebras, giraffes, ostriches, rhinos and springbok, but we could not see the lions. My favourite animals overall were the cheetahs because they are fast.

Hi Karl,
Thanks for sharing this (and other recounts) about your holiday activities.
I love going to the zoo, and just standing (or sitting) and watching the animals and how they interact with each other. I, too, was upset to find out about Janie's death - and surprised, because we had not heard about it through the media. However, she was old and had been well loved by the staff and visitors to the zoo.
Love Mama
