We went to the Zoo today. We had free passes (all the better) from Matt's dad who got them from Kennecott. I wanted to be there as soon as it opened at 9:00 a.m. YEAH RIGHT!! We ended up getting there at 10:30 a.m. Story of my life!! The kids were so excited and couldn't wait to get inside. We went over to the Discovery Zone first and--HELLO, didn't they know I was coming today because all the exhibits were "temporarily" closed. That was a bummer! Then we were off to the "big" animals. We saw a few insignificant things while walking down the path but the kids didn't get really excited until we got to the Elephants. We continued on seeing all of the things like Rhinos, Black Bears, Zebras, Monkeys and then we went over to the Penguins. It was feeding time for them and that was neat to watch. We stayed around there for a while. Then it was off to the Giraffes and then to the "Cats". I was excited for this one because last time the Tiger exhibit was closed for something or the other. We saw a Cheetah and I knew we were getting closer. We got to the Tiger exhibit and guess what?! Ummm..yeah it was closed for cleaning. What the?!?! I was pretty pissed. The lady in the "Grandma's House" exhibit said that if we wait around for 30-45 minutes we could see the Tiger. Hell no!! I wanted to see it NOW!! Whatever! We saw a Lynx and it was pretty cool but I REALLY wanted to see the Tiger! After that HUGE disappointment we headed over to the "Ghost of the Bayou" exhibit and saw a White Alligator. I will have to say that it was pretty cool but, yes, I was still mad about the Tiger. We decided that we were done and came home. It was fun watching my kids but I am STILL mad about the stupid Tiger!!
