Hi everybody!!! For my second day back in Moscow, I went to the zoo!!! (Зоопарк - "Zoopark") The Moscow zoo has almost 6,000 animals!
Of course I had to meet all of the monkeys! One baby mandrill was very eager to meet me.
I could hang out with apes and monkeys all day, they're so much fun to watch.
Then I went to find some four-legged friends.
I also went to say hi to the birds and bugs!
And now, as a big surprise, I'd like to introduce my cousin, Tanya TheMonkey!!! She is very nice and will be joining me on some of my adventures. Here we are in front of a large animal sculpture at the zoo by the same sculpter who designed Moscow's large Christopher Columbus monument.
We had a great time at the zoo together and we're getting ready for another surprise adventure, but we'll keep that secret for another couple of days ;-)
Yours,
Michael and Tanya
