Panda cub, Spanish queen go for stroll
MADRID - Chulina, the first female giant panda cub to be born at the Spanish capital's Zoo Aquarium de Madrid, had two special visitors when she went for her first walk outside the pagoda where she has spent her life until now.
She was accompanied on her first trip outside by Queen Sofia of Spain and Lyu Fan, the Chinese ambassador to the country.
The event on Wednesday included a band playing traditional Chinese music and a group of local schoolchildren, dressed as pandas, who exhibited paintings they had made of the cub.
