@ Olpe Lake
Monk asked frosty if she had a fur clip on her, as Monk wanted to fashion a fishing pole and stop to dangle a line...?
Olpe Lake
Visiting pets can employ the services of a resident orangutan who will row them across the Olpe Lake. He enjoys pausing the rowing boat right in the middle, where the water is deepest, and regaling his passengers in ghoulish tones with tales of the monster said to lurk in the depths of the Lake, a huge, strange looking creature called Olpessie. The more credulous of his passengers tend to start looking nervously fore and aft and shuffling towards the middle of the boat; bolder pets get their cameras out!

Island: Olpeggo
The Island of Olpeggo derives its name from Lake Olpe and Lake Peggo. Pets disembarking on its sandy beach will explore a river, woods and lakes and see how the other half live on this delightful island, then end their trip by climbing a very high, snow-capped mountain—but what stunning views from the top! They will be very tired but happy pets climbing back down the other side to reboard the boat.
