 Ever want to wake up to a Walrus?


At the Pairi Daiza Resort, visitors can do just that. 
Named the Best Zoo in Europe by the Diamond Themepark 
Awards for the last three years (2018-2020), the resort 
is located about an hour's drive from Brussels in Brugelette.
Those who decide to stay at the park overnight can choose 
from a variety of accommodations located on the east end 
of the park, in areas (or "worlds") called The Last Frontier 
and The Land of the Cold. The resort offers 100 rooms 
with eight different themes and wildlife views.
 
A nosy brown bear gazes into a guestroom at Pairi Daiza Resort.
Guestroom views look upon wildlife such as wolves and bears, 
sea lions, Siberian tigers, penguins, polar bears, and walruses.
The stays in the Land of the Cold include The Walrus House, 
where the rooms evoke the feeling of sleeping in a 
snow cave, with a glass partition that looks directly 
into the walrus's aquatic habitat.
The Polar Bear House rooms offer the choice to gaze 
upon the white bears above ground or in the water -- 
the window seat is particularly awesome.

Love at first sight at The Polar Bear House.

The stay includes 24-hour park access within the immediate 
resort area, breakfast and dinner, wifi and nonalcoholic 
drinks in the room. Prices for a two day, one night 
package start at 129 euro ($150 USD) per person.
Due to the coronavirus pandemic, the resort has instituted 
mask and social-distancing requirements 
to safeguard both guests and staff.

Love your art of the day, Jacki, and also all your smiles for Saturday. Humor helps often.
Have a fine Sunday.

Thank you, John. It is my favorite book, Velveteen rabbit, by Marjorie Williams. I guess you have to know the text, as much of it is hard to read.
Happy weekend!

Thank you so much, Elenor. Have you read The Velveteen Rabbit, by Marjorie Williams. It is my favorite book with such a tender message. Hoping you and your family are well and safe. Have a great weekend.
