ZOO Fun

We are going to start the weekend off by visiting the most famous zoo in Japan, and that is the Asahiyama Zoo, which just happens to be a 15 minute drive from our house. We bought a season pass which costs only 1000 yen (about $9), and we can go as many times as we want until March.

Before we went to the zoo Yasuko wanted to stop by the recycle clothes shop to see if she could find a swimsuit for Koby, of course while we were there she found shirts and other stuff also, but I can't complain, a shirt and a swimsuit cost $3.

The next stop was the zoo, this zoo is situated on a mountain and there is a lot of uphills to navigate to see the different animals. You can see some of the pictures we took at the zoo on my Flickr account.

We spent most of the day there until it was closing time, we will have to go back on another day since we didn't get to see everything. It was funny they play Aud Lange Sign when it is time for the zoo to close and the animals have learned the music means feeding time and they all go to the back of their fenced in sections to the back door and wait.

It was a fun and long day.
