Columbus Zoo

[Marigold2]

Hubby and I spent all day Friday at the Zoo. We drove down on Thursday spent the night and arrived at the Zoo bright and early.
The weather was overcast for the most part except when we went to see the birds (it poured) but we didn't care.

Sat down for a moment and this guy jumped up on the bench to give some love and get some in return.

Neat pictures Marigold. I am going to have to get the hammer out because this mean machine is coming up with the red x on about two thirds of pictures. Fluffy looks cute from a long distance away for me. LOL! It looks like you had a great time. :) I can see you with the 4 birds & friendly goat too. You look dashing girl. ;)

I didn't know Columbus had such a good zoo! Thank for sharing the pictures!

Ah thanks Bonnie, but my hair was soaking wet, not my best moment but that is ok I so enjoyed myself. The birds were so sweet.

Columbus has a great zoo. It took hubby and I from 9:30 to 4:45 to walk almost the entire zoo, we missed a bit when it poured.

They have no zebra, giraffe, snow leopard as Cleveland does.
I think the snow leopard is the most beautiful animal I have ever seen, second would be lions and tigers for me.

Their aquarium is very small, Cleveland has them beat on that hands down.

The polar bear exhibit however was grand, I loved it and watched this beautiful girl for a long time. It is hard to imagine they could be extincit soon.

It is well worth a day's trip.
