Some time two weeks ago there was a public holiday on Thursday (sorry, there are so many of these post-lent holidays I can't keep track). Some lucky people got Friday off as well, such as Chris and Cora.
Since I was not one of the lucky people, I needed to go to work, and Chris, realising it's not possible to sail a sporting yacht on his own while having Cora on his hands, decided to take Cora to the zoo.
It was last year the last time I took Cora to the zoo, and this year she was old enough to actually get excited about the animals. She knows the name of so many already (in all kinds of languages). Chris told me that her favourite were the snakes, giraffes, elephants, lions, and the butterfly house. They were looking for the polar bears, but couldn't find them.
It was a beautiful warm day that day (and darn it, I was stuck in an office), and it looked like the both of them had a lot of interesting and fun time. Chris even let Cora took some pictures on her own, with the results that all the pictures of butterflies and lions you can see in the album were shot by her.
