Things To Do on Really Hot Days….

…if you are totallly nuts.

We took the kids to the Greater Vancouver Zoo. They have not had a lot of good press between Eagles being eaten and neglected Hippos…..they don’t have a good  track record.

So while I have been putting of going…the kids LOVED it.

Even in the heat that  Great Vancouver experienced today…they loved it.

The Raptor show was awesome…to get THAT close to Falcons and Owls was a treat.

We watched the Lions get their lunch too!

All the animals were a HUGE hit with the kids.

I liked it because they let you in with picnic stuff and have lovely picnic areas to relax.

They even let people ride bikes and so forth.  You could also rent these pedal cars that just about killed us, but stopped the kids from complaining about walking.

It is a tad expensive..but I can only imagine the overhead needed to maintain these gorgeous animals.  It is $18 for an adult.   $60 for a family of four.

But we spent 5 hours there….so I suppose it was worth it.
