As the title suggests, this entry will be full of cute animal pictures. Wellington Zoo describes itself as "the best little zoo" and this is reflected in the animals that are kept there. For example, they have sun bears (which are the smallest bears in the world), pygmy marmosets (smallest monkey) and red pandas (which are a lot smaller and cheaper than the giant ones).

| Otters - they are at the zoo entrance, and were quite shy but came out just as we left the zoo! |

| Squirrel monkey - apparently their genus name is derived from words for "small monkey" |

My birthday happened to coincide with the long Easter weekend this year, so I decided to celebrate my birthday with a cheeseboard and some chocolate...
