From Valencia Life...
BIOPARK IN VALENCIA
Yesterday Francisco Camps, the President of the Valencian Community, and Valencia Mayoress Rita Barbera opened the new biopark of Valencia in which as few barriers as possible are erected between the public and the animals. The Biopark, which is in the Viveros Gardens, currently has some 250 different species of animals including lions, rhinoceros, zebra and gorilla that form the Africa section that will soon be completed with a section from America and Asia, and finally about a thousand different species will be inside the park. The new Biopark is open every day from 10 am to 6 pm in winter and from 10 am to 9 pm in summer

About Me
- Bridget Baker - Creator / Editor
- I was born and raised in Timaru, New Zealand then shifted to Auckland in 1998. We moved to Valencia in February 2005 for the 32nd America's Cup. I have two boys; Harrison who is 7 and Jack is 2 1/2 and was born in Valencia. My Husband Ian, is involved in the sailing world and is looking forward to competing in the 33rd America's Cup - if it ever happens! My previous employment has been; Receptionist for a Corporate Company, Retail Manager, and a Fitness Instructor. Just recently, I have put my love of photography into action and I am now offering my services as a Photographer (see above). I love to keep busy and organise different things so you will always see things pop up on the cronica for things to do!
