corner view / once upon a time

Once upon a time a beautiful and exotic trip to China ...




In fact, not at all.

Last Thursday was a strike day at school so we decided to spend the day at the zoo.
We went to the Parc de Beauval located about sixty km from home.

This is not the first time we go there. But we wanted to see the giant pandas ("lent" by China) who arrived there two years ago (this is for that reason they built pagoda and chinese buildings around the pandas enclosure). But we wanted to see all animals of course. And there are lots!

Here are some portraits. This zoo is very large, it would be best to spend two days to see everything perfectly. I'm not naturally a zoo fan but I have to admit this one is a beautiful place. This is one of the best (or maybe THE best) zoos in France and even Europe, that's what they say ...

    Wow! Incredible photos! I don't think I could choose a favorite! Just about the time I'd think, "this one," the next one would be spectacular. Thanks for taking us with you! :>)

    Oh a school strike. Smila would be delighted about it. :)

    The pictures are beautiful. And it looks as if the animals would feel very comfortable.

      Kids love strike days at school ... not always the parents :)

    Même s'il n'est pas vraiment chinois, ce voyage n'en reste pas moins beau ! Et la série est magnifique.
