Steve and I, our older son, his wife, and her parents all gathered for a day of frolicking at the San Diego Zoo's Safari Park. It was idyllic. Wow.
Walkabout Australia was new for most of this group.
I was excited to see the Wallabies and Kangaroos still with joeys in their pouches.
I will never tire of these magnificent marsupials.
The Big Cats are some of our favorites and usually they look like this lion, most of the time.
The volunteer at the exhibit said, "If you ever see a lion move, consider yourself lucky!"
I don't know what it was about today (cold, rainy) but all of the animals really put on a show. It was an exceptional animal experience for all of us.
The Giraffes, who are usually way out in the distance when we view them from the tram ride, were right next to our path... almost close enough to pet.
Even the rhino and her calf came to say, "Jambo!"
This committee of vultures cracked me up. Look at the higher perched bird in this photo and the one below. Do you see the difference?
And the baby elephants were as cute as ever! What a day.
Even the bats were awake and super active.
When this young gorilla wandered over to her mother's arms for an embrace, there was a collective sigh. So dang precious.
Even the flora and fauna performed for us in the fabulous show that was today at the Safari Park.
The End!

That looked like a WONDERFUL day! The baby elephant even looked like it was smiling :) Loved the pic of Izu laying on his back.
