Travelogue - Penguin Parade (February 2002)

It is a beautiful, blue sky, sunny, COLD (25degrees F)
Saturday here in Zurich. Just returned from attending
the Penguin Parade at the zoo up the hill. It occurs
every day at 130pm - as long as the temperature is
below 40 degrees F.

Attached are two pics I took with my digital camera.
They are King Penguins from Antarctica - with the
beautiful red/orange band around their neck - and
today was perfect because of the snowcover for them to
walk on. They are so cute as they strut right past
you - only a foot or so away. Thought you guys would
enjoy.
