greetings from anvers, jardin zoologique

[pictures found in thriftshop, lessines/lessen, be]
yes. anvers is antwerp. will always be that. in the tender fifties of the previous century, both flemish and french (sub)titles were applied in flemish places of interest. 

but what am i saying? today english is added. multilingual, for sure. i wonder what the beasts of today think? 

do they think at all? ☻

  1. Oh, I was in the zoo of Antwerp/Anvers/Antwerpen,
    dear Nadine!
    But I only remember ice bears with ugly symptoms of hospitalism and other unsetting situations...
    (as in other zoos).

    And: I really like those black and white photos. They are very nice composed. Look at those seahorses! Of course do they think!
    Maybe they can do speak at all?
    Listen...

    With love and hugs,
    Ariane.
