We had a nice time at the zoo yesterday.It was dreadfully hot and there was lots of walking and lots of people.

We had to park so far away that I had a little bit of regret right at the beginning, lol.

We decided to get a membership to the zoo because it is open all year long (didn’t know that) and it really is the best value for us.

Since my daughter is studying Earth science in the coming year, InshaALLAH, we can really take advantage and visit at least a few more times before next August.

The only disappointment for us was the elephant exhibit. They weren’t outside this time so I was annoyed because that’s what I was most looking forward to seeing. Oh, same thing with the hippos.

The older children were able to ride the camels thanks to their father’s enthusiasm and they liked it a lot, except they said their camel was stinky.

There were several exhibits showing artifacts.

Even my mother-in-law had fun!
