We almost didn't stay because it was packed! But at the last minute we found a parking spot and decided to brave it. We are so glad we did because the new part of the zoo that they've been building over the last 2 years was open for a preview! We got to see the elephants, which it's been awhile because they moved them over to their new place several months ago, so we hadn't seen them the last few times we went to the zoo.
They even got a few more than the 2 they had before, including a baby elephant!
This is one of the new males. He was inside and they had him do this pose for the crowd.
After we walked through some of the new area {they only had the area where the elephants were, but it's going to be a HUGE new exhibit to include all the Asian animals}, we headed to a grassy, shaded area near the giraffes. We laid out a blanket and let the kids run around for a while. It was so relaxing and enjoyable! Just hanging out together.
The weather was perfect and the company was just right! After we had hung out for a little while we decided to pack up and head home. We didn't feel like fighting the crowds to see anymore animals and the beauty of having a membership is you aren't out anything if you don't see everything!
{Our sweet girl. She's even previewing one of the new items coming to my shop soon!}
Handsome boy. Love my littles!
