Day 2 And There's a LOT To Talk About

Ok. SO it's really the next day here but I couldn't find the time to blog yesterday. I did want to make sure to do it at all though. Yesterday we went to the zoo, even though we originally planned to go on a paddle boat ride.










The plan kind of fell through when the park ponds were all dried up and hence unusable for a paddle boat. However, the zoo was amazing! I've never been to a zoo where you can get closer to the animals! You can even feed most of them, which would be unheard of in the US. Here's a look:

These were the hippos that we saw. They would open their mouths whenever someone would put their hand up. They were always expecting some sort of food.

A Giraffe!

There were these amazing baboon babies. They were really playful as you can tell. I'm amazed at how people are allowed to feed the animals or at least I think they are..... regardless, everyone did feed them and it makes for a much more enjoyable experience than American zoos.

This was another instance of something that would NEVER happen in the US. These rhinos were in an enclosure that was seperated from people by a few flimsy wood poles and pieces of metal. It makes for both dangerous and amazing fun times :D.

We didn't really do much today so not much to post about on that. Anyways, anyone who's in Budapest MUST MUST go to this zoo. It's deceivingly large and full of amazing things!
