This morning I woke up to go to the Prague Zoo! I’ve never
been a huge fan of zoos because even though the animals are really cool to see
and I would never see a penguin during my lifetime if it weren’t for zoos,
there’s something about the artificial habitat that bothers me. That impression
hasn’t changed, but I still had a really good time today.
There were probably about twenty of us at the zoo and many
of the other kids I hadn’t met before, or at least hadn’t spoken to more for
more than a few minutes. I spent the first hour and half walking around with a
guy named Harrison. Harrison’s from Boston but is in the USC film school. He
has the same camera as I do, so I found we had plenty to talk about. After we
got lunch, a group of us walked around for a little seeing more animals before
stopping for the Sea Lion show. The pavilion was packed and we had to split up.
Petra and I found some great seats a top some rocks in the back. The sun was
directly in front of us though, so I’m not too thrilled with my photos.
After the Sea Lion show, I walked around with Rachael, a
fellow Badger and the girl I went to lunch with on the first day with Ethan. We
were trying to find the African Safari but got lost a handful of times on our
way. After seeing the giraffes, we decide that four hours at the zoo is enough
and call it quits and we catch the metro back toward Old Town. Instead of going
home though, we decide to walk around a bit and see what we see.
Old Town Square has so much to offer it’s crazy! I was there
just the other day and it was completely different. Today there was a huge
flower display in the center of the square, a fashion show, and a random
Ferrari salesman showing a bright red Ferrari in the middle of the square.
Anyway, though there aren’t many, here are a few photos from
today’s excursions: Prague Zoo & Old Town Photos 5.9.10
