Africa is known for its parks, sanctuaries and zoos. Kruger Park and the myriad safaris are examples of the way animals are nurtured in this continent. It was time to take the little ones to a zoo. So, we decided to visit the Lory Park Zoo, Midrand, which is smaller than the Johannesburg Zoo, mainly because it was a nice hot day, and we thought that it would be better to go to the former before going for lunch to the Mall of Africa, which is one of the biggest malls around, maybe even in the whole of Africa.
