China Series #2: Giant Panda

Here's the second edition of the Chinese Vacation Series. I've selected the Giant Pandas that we saw at the Beijing Zoo. First, we saw the ones outside. At first I was fascinated by them eating and walking around. After a while, this panda looked more like he was pacing frantically. It was like the people watching were making him uncomfortable. I'm not quite sure what this panda was eating. I think it was "maked grass like growing thing and combustion engine not boiled." I could be wrong though. Translations can be hard. It might just be bamboo. This seemed to be the most content of all six of the pandas that we saw. He could have just been the hungriest of all the pandas though. We did get there around breakfast time for the pandas. He would have more time to get bored after his belly was full. Then we saw the pandas that were in the indoors exhibits. Those giant pandas seemed pretty... well sad. The ones inside just sat staring out the bars trying to look outside. They wouldn't look in the direction of the people at all. They also didn't move. I was happy to hear that a much larger Beijing Zoo is being built on the outskirts of the city to give more room to all the animals. The current Beijing Zoo is way too cramped. Current Life Update: Pond Temperature: 56 Degrees Talli's birthday dessert party was a big success yesterday. Everyone seemed to have a decent time. We enjoyed having them all over. Talli and I both had a great time and lots of great conversations with lots of great people. This morning, we dropped Leor off at the airport. Hopefully, he had a good flight and will have a great spring break. Stay tuned for more China Series Updates...
