Yesterday we went to see the Phuket Zoo in an effort to find something really exciting for a three-year-old. I don't know what we were expecting exactly, but more than anything, the muddy concrete enclosures and forlorn-looking animals reminded us of the zoo at Niamey's Musee. We watched part of a crocodile show in which the crocs were baited with sticks and two performers did tricks like kissing them on the nose and lying on their backs. Alden enjoyed the aquarium and feeding bananas to the elephants, but eventually we tired of getting bitten up by mosquitoes and watching the animals do tricks, so we caught a taxi back to Karon. More zoo pictures.
