Zlin Zoo Czech Republic

Zlin has the most amazing zoo and we were able to spend the morning there with some great families.  These are rhino's carved out of wood.

We felt like we could get so close to the animals at this zoo.

Hello there you beautiful rhino.

I would love to have gone back to this zoo because I think that was so much more to see than we what did.  :)

Ok, can you see that small wire just in front of the Lion?  Well that and a mote of water was the only think keeping that very large cat on his side.  LOL  It was crazy to see one so close and not behind a very large fence.  I wish I had more pictures to show because this just doesn't do it justice.  LOL  They guy gave us a really show with all the roaring that he was doing.

This was the group that joined us for the day.  Starting left to right.  Helena with her two children, Anna, Mirka, Lucia and her son and the Janouskovi's and their youngest son Filip.

All the boys crossing the suspension bridge.

This is in Luhacovice.  Where they have natural mineral spring water that is the most awful tasting water you will ever have.  But the Czech people swear by it for keeping healthy and even make special trips just to drink it and swim in it.  They doctors will actually prescribe a week long stay there to get better.  Tyler must need some serious health filling up that large bottle.  LOL

Stefan having his first taste and the results are...

It doesn't taste good!!!  LOL

Tyler, Michelle, Jamie, Anna and Zuzanna enjoying the beautiful buildings.

Stefan climbing in the trees.

That is a very tall wall.  LOL

The older three boys didn't come with us to the springs as they stayed with the Janouskovi's and went to the out door climbing play place for the afternoon and had a great time, but we didn't want them to miss out on trying the water so we brought some back with us.  Rylan was first.

and not liking it.  LOL

Darien is next....

and I am loving the face.  LOL

We are out in their little cottage in their back yard were they have a fire place.  We enjoyed roasting sausage.

The boys now think that we need to make one of these in our back yard.  LOL
