Big Changes: New Look, New Url

Yay! Zenzero has revamped his photo blog. It has a brand new look which has been in the making for a while, as well as a new, shorter, and easier to remember URL. The blog's look has been customised to be unique. The fun look is also more representative of Zenzy's life. He also has a fresh new Facebook profile page, as well as an email address, which can be accessed by the links on the blog.

We hope that you will like the changes as much as we do.

Zenzero, and the Wonder of Machu Picchu

Soon after leaving Cusco, Zenzy arrived in Machu Picchu, and was left in awe. No surprise really, as Machu Picchu is one of the new 7 Wonders of the World. The first thing he saw was the mountain of Huayna Picchu which towers over the Historic Sanctuary of Machu Picchu. The city is also known as the "Lost City of the Incas" and was only rediscovered in 1911. Those Incas were very good builders. After the tour, Zenzero decided to buy a traditional colourful Peruvian hat, but couldn't find one which fits him well enough.

Oooooo, Peru! Cusco.

Wahey! Zenzero has arrived on his third continent, South America, all thanks to the city of Cusco in Peru. Located near the Andes mountain range, Cusco is the historic capital of the Inca Empire and was declared a World Heritage Site in 1983 by UNESCO. Here, Zenzero saw the Temple of Coricancha and the famous Cathedral of Cusco

In 1911, explorer Hiram Bingham departed from the city, subsequently re-discovering the ruins of Machu Picchu. Almost 100 years later, Zenzero does the same.

Château de Villandry in Tours, France

Once King Richard I of England met Philip II of France at the Château de Villandry, and now it was Zenero's turn to give this most famous French château a visit.

Its famous Renaissance gardens include a water garden, ornamental flower gardens, and vegetable gardens. The gardens are laid out in formal patterns created with low box hedges. In 1934, Château de Villandry was designated a Monument historique. Like all the other châteaux of the Loire Valley, it is a World Heritage Site.

Zenzero is One year old

Happy Birthday Zenzero!

Zenzero's first trip in France was a year ago. 365 days later Zenzy has already been to over a 20 locations, visited 9 countries, 2 continents, a blog which gets about 200 hits a day, and along the way made many many friends. To think that most Gingerbread People only last 5 minutes until they disappear. Yum Yum...

El Zenzero en Barcelona

Built by Hercules 400 years before the building of Rome, Barcelona is the capital of Catalonia and the first Spanish city visited by Zenzero. Barcelona has one of Europe's principal Mediterranean ports and contains many tourist destinations all which coundn't be reached my the Gingerbreadman's little legs. At the bottom of Las Ramblas, Zenz met the great explorer Christopher Colombus, who according to the legend is pointing towards the US, but isn't. Barcelona is also very famous for it's football team, with one it's best players being Ronaldinho. After coming across an usual street parade, Zenzero decided to stop and have a nice bottle of Estrella, the Spanish beer.
