Giraffes

My wife's favourite animal is the giraffe. Because of her interests I would have thought it was the horse, but they do have similarities. Have you ever watched a giraffe walk? The most incredible and surprising thing I've ever seen; they seem to float along and, by coincidence, they just happen to be moving their legs very slowly, as if in a dream, at the same time. It's like they can slow down time all around them. Magical. We've visited Marwell Zoo in Hampshire a few times and spent most of it hanging out with the giraffes. They're a good crowd even if they do look down on you a bit.
