We seem to be on a world panda tour. We've seen pandas at zoos in San Diego, Chiang Mai, and Taiwan. In each of these locations, there might be a couple of pandas at most and frankly, they seem a little lonely....on top of strict "quiet" and sanitizing shoes, hands, etc. And the hoopla that surrounds the difficulty in getting a panda on loan from China.
This panda refuge was so refreshing by comparison. A bunch of pandas munching on bamboos in various enclosures. And crowds of loud chinese people gawking, jockeying for photo position, and snapping the requisite panda shots (yes, I'm including me too).
Yes, here at the panda refuge, there's a stocked lake and after we ate ice cream, we stopped to feed the fish and black swan. Kind of made our earlier fish feeding exploits seem tame.
