Lions, Tigers and Giraffes, Oh My!

Today we spent a jammed packed day at the Wild Animal Park and Aquarium--no bears, but lots and lots of other fun animals and fish to see.  Among the highlights: a baby jaguar and baby warthogs, several varieties of monkeys, big lizards and snakes, a white alligator, a white tiger, a white rhinoceros, tortoises, a kangaroo with her joey in her pocket, running zebras and Carmen's favorite, feeding the giraffes.


 





After visiting our animal friends, we headed to lunch where we dined with sharks. We had a prime seat and Carmen was in awe of the big fish swimming around while we ate. We made a quick tour of the aquarium exhibits which included touching the sting rays, a lobster and starfish, before our little explorer was ready to retire for her long-over due nap.




 It was a fun day. Not sure who enjoyed it more, Carmen or Grandma!
