Switzerland ...

On a sunny weekend this summer I went to the "Anholter Schweiz". Anholt is a nearby smalltown and has this park with animals and a nice big forest. When this park was created in 1893 by the earl Leopold zu Salm-Salm, he built it similar to the Vierwaldstätter See and constructed a Swiss chalet in the middle of it - hence the resemblance to a small part of Switzerland. Nowadays a lot of animals can be seen in this park. They have a group of asiatic black bears and three brown bears. Unfortunately I had problams with the rechargeable batteries and my camera constantly shut down so I couldn't take as many pictures as I wanted to.
