Monkeying around at the Zoo!

Today was bright and sunny, the best day since I have arrived in Germany. We decided to spend it at the Zoo; named after Carl Hagenbeck. He was a fishmonger and in 1863 began as an amateur animal collector. He founded the park where the zoo sits in 1907.  The animals were definitely enjoying the nice weather too, a lot were super active and vocal.

These were very tasty. The unsweeted green tea below - not so much! Imagine tree bark boiled with a used dull tea bag! I did offer a taste to my friends right after these photos, No takers! They can't all be winners!
