Jardin Japones Y Zoologico

When the sun is shining in Buenos Aires thers no better way to spend the day then exploring the greenery that this Enormous city contains. For me it was going to the japanese gardens and the zoo. I set off on my own one morning.. with my walking shoes-well I wouldnt exactly call them walking shoes but Id say there the most suitable shoes for walking that I have here!-to explore these fine places, with the sun shining brightly and my earphones in my ears it couldnt get any better. I got off the bus and walked the fine streets that i walked to Museo Malba and more before I reached the Japanese gardens. If your not a fan of fish...dont go there! I learnt this the hard way. The pond in the middle of the japanese gardens is filled with dozens upon dozens of these huge fish staring up at you opening and closing there mouths looking for food. Walking across the bridge I was terrified I was going to fall in and be eaten alive by these not so appealing creatures. Apart from that the gardens were beautiful. The sun showing off every beautiful aspect there! A pleasant but quick trip, plenty of photos taken- especially of those fish, and lots of sitting in the sun.

After that I set off to the zoo. With a brief explanation from the girl in the Japanese Gardens of where it was I set off to find it. It didnt take me long to find the zoo, but it did take me awhile to find the entrance! I walked the whole way around the zoo before I found the entrance!! But the fabulous animals I saw inside made it worth it! The Toucan I loved, and the fact that you could buy special food for feeding the animals was pretty cool. Although i didnt do that..Maybe next time! I spent hours taking in horrible smells and wandering around looking for animals that are on the map, I felt like a child again. It was great fun! Although the walking around for a very long time is something Im not used to, and walking all the way to the other end of the zoo and back again..just to get to the exit and walk all the way back to the other end on the outside is not the most fun!! BUT when you finish it off with a trip to an icecream parlour... it just makes it all ok!!
