One day Roy and Miriam Goodridge took us to a zoo-park called Temaiken near their house. It’s a zoo but more like an educational park, owned by one of the wealthiest families in Argentina. Here we are with Roy, Miriam and their two boys Willem and Dan.

A capybara (the largest of the rodent family), and a small crocodile called yacaré
The capybara. When hunted it produces a beautiful suede-like leather with distincitve spot markings. It’s the most expensive leather that there is.
Big turtles
Dan very thoughtfully eats his Pringles…

That evening we went and had pizza with the Skvor family (daughter and son-in-law of the people that own the school where we have convention). These photos are in their lounge.
