Exploring Doha: Doha Zoo



Time to go to Doha Zoo to enjoy the last few weeks (or days!) of blissful weather. We have raved about the different parks in Doha that we love! And yes, one of these parks is the Doha Zoo Kids Play area. We just love the play area's climb on facilities the slides included.

this slide is really awesome = hearing the kids shriek with joy! 

one of the "baby" slides or "girly" slides

THESE ARE SIMPLY SUPERB - LOVE THE WALL CLIMBING FACILITY! ;)

AND UP SHE WENT! 

AND OFF TO THE SLIDE -- WHOOOPEEDOO!

MORE CLIMB ON!

Of course, we also enjoyed looking at all the animals in the zoo. Specially there's a new bear in town!
Fresh from China!


somebody's enjoying staring at the bear! 

Of course, most of the animals were healthier five years ago and the cages for animals are simply animal abuse. How we wish that with Qatar's money, that the government would at least allocate some for the protection of animals in the zoo. But maybe they're getting there in  a few years or so. For the mean time, we can't boycott the zoo because of the Turknoy kids. Everytime we read books about animals, we just can't help it but travel a kilometer or two to the Doha Zoo. And not to mention enjoy the Doha Zoo Kids Play Area.



Keep exploring!
