A bad day for zoo keepers…
Today we went to ‘Amazon World’ on the east of the island, and were very pleasantly surprised. We expected it to be a little park with a few animals and things, but it was full on zoo stuff, with loads of different areas for the different types of animal.
Although we enjoyed ourselves, the zoo-keepers clearly had other things on their minds. The woman who served us on the way in tried to give us the previous customer’s change, somebody acidentally let 2 doves escape from one of the jungle enclosures (they were free flying around you as you walked through), and to top it off, someone left a tap running in an enclosure in the dungeon section (where they keep the bats etc) and so that had to be closed temporarily.
Aside from all this excitement, I would thouroughly recommend it as a day out. I was just bummed that I missed the penguin feeding.
