Zoo - Member's Day

Back on August 6th, we went to Member's Day at the Henry Doorly Zoo. We went right after Doug got off work and boy was it crowded. We are used to quiet Sunday mornings, and this was not one of them. We really just wanted to see what all goes on during the Member Days, and we accomplished that. We also so a few other exhibits we had never been to. We tried to ride the train, but it was too crowded, so we walked UP the big hill (which we had never been to before) behind the petting zoo and saw the otters and small mamals building. Doug & Sam walked down to see the Maned Wolfs get fed, and Sam thought that was pretty cool. We then saw the sealions and walked up another big hill and saw the Elephants and Rhinos. Then we ate supper at the sealion concession stand. I think Sam thought it was pretty cool to eat at the zoo (eventhough it was just a hot dog and some chips). Then it was time to go home. We walked through the Garden of the Senses on the way, which we usually don't do because of allergy concerns, but Doug toughed it out this time. The kids were tired and we were hot, but it was a fun time.
