Christmas Eve and we decided to go to the Beijing Zoo today. Mainly to see a live Panda Bear. So we were up early and took the subway to the zoo. Which has a stop 'Beijing Zoo' and you get off right outside the zoo. (I am starting to like the subway - except when it is crowded).
After we entered we first went to see the Pandas.
I did feel sorry for them though. But being winter it did look a bit dreary.
Also, the warmer climate animals were all inside in small enclosures.
It is very big and has a variety of animals and birds. Yes believe it or not, the normal rooster was on display as well.
It was freezing cold, but we enjoyed each others company.
After going back by subway we went back to the hotel and ate there. We then went for a stroll around the hutongs and once we were freezing cold, we landed up at starbucks (very expensive) to warm ourselves up.

Too excited.

Some mad bird of prey that kept charging at Paul trying to protect its food.
It also had 'Swan Lake' literally.
Diving into the water.

These ducks were walking on the ice.
The duck below was enjoying playing in the water.
It took us nearly all day at the zoo as it is so big.

Having some coffee to warm ourselves up before we carry on.
