Saturday
With the incoming threat of severe thunderstorms and tornadoes, the Zoo closed at 1:00 pm. A few hundred visitors came in that morning but didn't stay long. Oh well. You can't control the weather so there is no need to get upset. We are just lucky the storms didn't do any damage. The keepers left around 3:30 after all our work was finished and animals were brought back inside their barns.
Sunday
Gorgeous! High in the low 80's with a light breeze. It was a perfect day. My kids, husband and I had a blast at the Zoo. The Zoo had thousands of visitors. We climbed the rock wall first, then made our way to the grill. "The grill" is for employees and friends only. Beside the hamburgers and hotdogs were bbq, ribs, chicken, fish, sausage, and wild game. Along the way we ran into Cinderella, Ariel, Red Power Ranger and Darth Vader. My son said, "Mr Vader, I have all your movies." After eating we walked around looking at the animals and playing games. We stopped by the playground, rode ponies and camels, and finished with a train ride. It was a very long, very fun, very exhausting day.
Well worth all the hard work!
