It was a great sunny day and not too crowded. The first things we saw when we came in was a huge rhino drinking water from the sprinklers near the fence. He was very funny and tried to get water on his body too. It was quite entertaining to watch the animal enjoy water and attention from people. My favorite were tigers. One of them stared at me for some time and then stood up and walked to the other cage through the corridor above us. We have also visited the gardens near the zoo. We saw a lot of blooming roses but not many other flowers. Overall, it was a great day to spend outside observing animals!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0 On one of the Sundays, Basil, Juniper, Breanna, and I have visited the Higashiyama Zoo.
