Kindy Field Trip #2 The Jeonju Zoo
Some of the kids (clockwise from top left: Elliot, Lucy,Rachel, Turtle, Richard and Ricky)

Our second field trip was to the Jeonju zoo and it was pretty fun. I love goin to the zoo, and I love getting paid for it even more. I was worse than most of the kids, runnin around and taking pictures of all the animals.
It was really sad seeing the way the bears were kept, their cages were pretty small and with a small pond of gross brown water.
The girls (teachers, not kids) kept pointing out all the animal genitalia, we saw all sorts of wierd animal wangs. The hippo's was one of the weirdest....Can you tell I don't have that much to talk about for this blog?

By the time we got to the giraffes the kids were half dead. It got to the point where they stopped looking at the animals.
Just before the camel here, they had some sort of Lama type animal. I was kinda worried because all the kids were really close to the cage and the animal looked like it was ready to spit. It was funny because all the teachers started to take a couple steps backs, and no one said anything to the kids. Luckily, he spit in a different directions and not at the kids.Probably the best shot of the dayThe mighty elephant
The national animal of KoreaOnly in Korea...Sheep at the zoo.
The Kiwi's found this particularly hilarious. Understandable when you come from a country where sheep outnumber people. So that was the zoo trip it was pretty good, felt bad for some of the animals because kids were throwing junk food at them and stuff, and their teachers were doing the same (not the teachers and kids from our school). I guess we just hold animals in higher regard..I dunno.
