Mulhouse

Our last stay before heading back to Paris was in a French town near the German and Swiss borders, called Mulhouse. When we drove down the first day, we had about half a day left to spend, and no real plans - so we went to their Zoo!



Aren't these owls regal?



This guy had the right idea - it was HOT that day.



Turtle train... it was really funny when the lead turtle headed into a pile of rocks... they couldn't go forward, and it took them a while to figure out what to do instead!



Not only are they cute, but we got to see them fed - and heard a lecture about them in French (of which we managed to follow mostly along, though I'm sure we missed more than I realized!)
