The Giraffe

I kind of missed the "home" of the giraffe .. we were to exit the Zoo, but I've particulary asked the info man about where I can find the giraffe .. and there it was :)

The Turtle Family

There were no signs telling the ages of the big turtles and of the child turtles :) Though I was very sure the big ones were over 100 years old .. Impressive isn't it?

The little turtle

He seems hungry. I wonder he's over 50 :)

King of the Jungle

The King had nothing to rule and he was having his afternoon nap .. do you have any problem with that? :)

Lazy

Lazy is this animal's middle name (first name actually). His preffered position .. I wonder what's his salary for doing this :)

Somebody gotta watch out

The little guy (labeled as dangerous!) is "nosy", standing up and careful checking out on the horizon .. you know the species.

And here's NEMO

Have you seen the movie "Finding Nemo"? If you did'nt .. go see it! We have searched for Nemo and found him in Artis Amsterdam's Aquarius :)

More colourful fish

More and more fish .. too bad that VT travelogues are "cut" ...

Unbelievable amount of info. on Amsterdam, so do you think the essence of the city can be captured in an 8 hour layover? :) Happy travels!

This page is bursting with information!!! You did a fantastic job on this one! Lots of major works are moved from Amsterdam to Antwerp during restoration; exhib. = called "Rijksmuseum aan de Schelde".
