The past few weeks were dominated by very warm and dry summer-like weather, which has motivated us already to take out a season ticket at close-by Stadionbad and enabled us to enjoy several beautiful hours on the roof terrace in the sun and excellent BBQ evenings. The most recent week brought some relief for the nature with some rain and cooler temperatures, but spoilt unfortunately our plans to have a nice afternoon somewhere in the green picknicking with Mirko, Maria and Valentin in order to life up to one of the "vows" we gave them togerther with Claudia and Oli for their wedding. Luckily we are spontaneous and flexible and so we changed plans to a day in the Schoenbrunn Zoo together with zilions of other people on Sunday.
We were not alone!
As Mirko has not yet had a season ticket for the zoo he queued for 15 minutes and once we were all inside we realised that it would be a good idea to have some food. Especially Michael, Mary's brother, and his daugther Mattilda were starving. Once we got our batteries re-charged we jumped into the masses at the feeding of the seals. We ended up in the sixth row hearing noise and laughter and seeing every now and then water splashing. Not a problem for us, as we know the procedure anyway. We then made our way via the icebears and the elephants to the lemurs, which had some offspring recently and it was absolutely gorgeous to see these young ones jumping around carefully and humble - more like frogs than lemurs.
Spot the monkey!
