And it was soooooo much fun!
My best friend and I both had today off work so we went to the zoo. It was great!
We usually go several times a summer (we're zoo members). Last year we went almost every week when we got a chance. (hoping to do the same thing this year) All of the animals were sooo beautiful. I got to see the baby giraffe that was born a few months ago as well -it's just gorgeous!!!
(they're my favorite animal.) Also a new exhibit for the polar bears and sea lions recently opened called "Northwest Passage" -it's gorgeous!!!!
We got to see the sea lion show too and it was great. we also got to see the elephant show too with their keepers. one was in it's forties and the other elephant was 21- they were sooo smart!!! What beautiful animals!!! The new butterfly exhibit was open for the summer as well so we saw that in addition to everything else. The female giant panda, YaYa is supposed to have her baby soon too, so hopefully in a few weeks we'll get to go back and see a baby giant panda too
It was wonderful!!! It actually wasn't too hot today eithor so that was good! The only lousy thing was the haze that's been hanging over Memphis for a few days now from the fires in georgia and fla. We had such a good time today!!
(and spent way too much in the gift shop
