Gwyrdd Community Day

Gwyrdd patrol had an leisurely start to the day. We left camp with plenty of time to get on our bus for 10:45. A much shorter bud ride than expected we arrived at the zoo, and had a small lunch with some interesting ice creams.

We were then walked over to an area where the Japanese demonstrate a traditional dance which we then had to copy with mixed results. However I enjoyed it despite it being very hot.

Next we then followed our guide who took us to the monkey enclosure where we got to see the animals up close. We all got some excellent photos as the monkeys leapt from tree to tree before our eyes.

Finally, we ended the day with a gentle stroll through the park with the occassional stop to look at the Japanese sculptures. Tried but happy we returned back to the campsite plus one plushie monkey.
