Trip to Wellington Zoo- Firefox

Phoebe and I went to a Red Panda Encounter today at Wellington Zoo. The Keeper took us into their enclosure and we fed ‘Reeka’ and ‘Jay’ pears and grapes. So soft. They are natives of China and are found up high in the Himalayas. Also they are known as the ‘Firefox’ and are the symbol for the browsers we know so well!

This is Reeka and Jay’s son who wasn’t keen to join us and stayed up in the trees:

Kids go back to school in a week or so , then can start printing (and weaving) again.
