-Greater Vancouver Zoo, April 2008
I spent the day yesterday at the Greater Vancouver Zoo with the supercalafragilistic John family. Peggy. Chris. Catherine. Catherine`s friend Rene. (No. 1 daughter, Courtenay, was in San Francisco on a band trip).
It was a lot of fun. You can walk around the site or take a little train like the one in Stanley Park that circles the site. You can ride a bike. You can take a small bus and go into areas that you can`t walk into that have bison and black bears and other animals.
My favourite part was seeing Shadow the grizzly bear that they rescued when she was orphaned as a cub. She was in fine form yesterday, playing in the water, running in her natural habitat, trying to rip down a tree, flipping rocks.
There were giraffes, rhinos, camels, a Siberian tiger, a lion and lots of other animals that I'd never even heard of.
It`s a great day trip when the sun's shining.
