Woodland Park Zoo

We had a week off before hubby had to start work after we arrived in Seattle.  We loved the zoos in Melbourne, so figured getting a membership was a good idea.  The first time we went it was still quite cold (entry fees are also lower in winter) and a few of the animals from warmer climates didn’t come out.

We finally got to see wolves.  They were a huge draw-card for the kids. Seeing meercats inside was strange, so used to them being outdoors, but it is way too cold here for them.  The kids had fun seeing Australian birds.  It brought back fond memories of feeding them in Sherbrooke Forest.

 

   

 

 

Zoo trip

We had family visiting recently and, as you do, took them around to see some of the sights.  One of our favourite places to go is Melbourne Zoo. 

We somehow never make it through the whole place in one day, but we get to see something new every time.  The kids loved the section with all the snakes and lizards!

My favourite is always the butterfly house.  It is the coolest thing ever to have butterflies land on you!

 

We discovered a part of the ocean section we had not been to before. 

It really was a day full of adventure!
