Zootime in Argentina

Here's a pretty little photo....

....taken at the Buenos Aires Zoo yesterday. To commemorate the 8th International Childhood Cancer Day a whole group of kids that aren't feeling so well along with family members (there were 4,000 people there in total, apparently) got invited by the local Fundación Natalí Dafne Flexer to check out the animals, see the sights, eat something tasty, watch special performances by well-known children's entertainers in Argentina as well as the jugglers, magic shows, fancy dress parties, dances and present-giving. Here's a report on the day in Spanish.

Let's hope that after reading this you go away and count your lucky stars in the same way that your humble scribe did. Some necessary perspective, please.
