Merryle has been to Nova Scotia six times without ever seeing a moose so she is determined to see one in Sweden. We head to a wildlife park which practically guarantees moose-sighting as we trundle along in a little train waving bunches of moose "salad" . Sure enough there they are from cute calm little babies /photo 1 to great big bucks. I can't believe how BIG they are, especially as Emily Louise practically comes in the window at David in the blue coat / photo 3. She soon works out we've run out of salad and pops her head in with the driver, obviously knowing he will give her extra.
Then we come to the American bison and they are HUGE. No way would you leave your arm outside the train with them around. All the animals look calm and are obviously breeding well so it's a successful wildlife park. We haven't seen much wildlife so this is a treat.
We have a picnic lunch sitting on the ground alongside the bus and the Swedes come to gawk at us as if we are another wildlife exhibit. We don't care: we're going to have a nice snooze while Fab drives us to a manor house to see folk dancing.
