On Christmas day, we visited River Wonders<\/a>, a river-themed zoo and aquarium. It is worth going for an afternoon. Each big river has its own area with explanations about the climate, fauna and flora.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Le jour de No\u00ebl, nous sommes all\u00e9s \u00e0 River Wonders<\/a>, un zoo et un aquarium sur le th\u00e8me des fleuves. Cela vaut la peine d’y passer un apr\u00e8s-midi. Chaque grand fleuve a sa propre zone avec des explications sur le climat, la faune et la flore.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Fun fact: In 1542, Spanish explorer Don Francisco de Orellana went on an expedition in search of cinnamon and gold. Instead, he discovered the world’s mightiest river and named it Rio de Orellana. European geographers later renamed it Rio Amazonas (Amazon River) after the mythical tribe of warrior women who cut off one breast to enhance their archery skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fait amusant : En 1542, l’explorateur espagnol Don Francisco de Orellana partit en exp\u00e9dition \u00e0 la recherche de cannelle et d’or. Au lieu de cela, il d\u00e9couvrit le fleuve le plus puissant du monde et le nomma Rio de Orellana. Les g\u00e9ographes europ\u00e9ens l’ont plus tard rebaptis\u00e9 Rio Amazonas (fleuve Amazone) d’apr\u00e8s la tribu mythique des femmes guerri\u00e8res qui se coupaient un sein pour am\u00e9liorer leurs comp\u00e9tences en tir \u00e0 l’arc.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
