We visited the Toronto Zoo yesterday...after two years. It was nice to be with some church friends with their kids my kids' age. They all enjoyed each other's company. And it was nice to be with somebody who knows which way to go -- it saved us time and our energy (from walking). And also, we bought our first zoo annual membership. Now, we can go anytime we want even for just two hours every visit unlike staying for the whole day just to make the most of your visit paying regular fees. So, we saw the ususal favourites -- the giraffe, the elephant, the lion, the monkeys, the snake. And I am impressed at how well my kids were during the entire zoo visit. They would not wander around, they would come when called and they would ask permission before they do anything. Wow! We rode the zoomobile, we walked, we talked, we went up and down the steps (with my trusty stroller--which I love so much!), we went from one pavillion to another, then we stopped by the splash park to play for a few minutes before we head home. The kids are tired but nobody complained except for Jethro who was very sleepy because it was his nappy time (he was so tired and sleepy that immediately after we left the splash park, he slept right away in the stroller (woke up a little when I load him in the van) until we got home.
But I forgot my handy-dandy camera! So no actual pics of us in the zoo (except if I can copy and save some from Stef and Leslie! note: just added few pics! Thanks, Stef!) just this picture that I took when we got home - Beata and Jethro sleeping in the van.
Now we'll just see how many visits we can make in a year to make our annual membership worth it!
