Mondo Verde

For Bella's actually birthday (today) decided to got to a local place called Mondo Verde http://www.wereldtuinenmondoverde.nl/.  It's in a town called Langraaf which isn't to far from us (25 minutes) and it was a beautiful day to be outside! It is a huge park (maybe?) that has large gardens from different countries, animals, pretty architecture and an amusement area.  It has great walking paths and was super clean.  It was a little pricy but I think if you buy a season pass it will pay for itself in 2 visits or so.  The only think I didn't like was that there was no maps around the park.  I for some reason wasn't given one when I bought my tickets so I had no idea where I was most of the time.  We did a solid 3 hours here, could have done more but Zerek had a little tumble that involved his face hitting the pathway.  Needless to say, I was shocked when I picked him up and there was a small bruise on his forehead and some blood in his mouth from a little cut.  I expected worse (which is sad).  Anyways, here were some pictures from the day!
Bella with the Flamingo's
Little baby birds!!
This was an amazing greenhouse/tropical building with plants and birds flying everywhere!
The Italian Fountain, think its supposed to be Trevi Fountain
Cool waterfall I tried to get them both to smile in front of 
Had a small section for dinosaurs (they like their dinosaurs our here)
A small moment of joy
They were obsessed with sticks
This was kind of odd but cool, there is a tunnel that goes underneath to another section
The area with greek statues 
This garden was beautiful!
