We took the opportunity to go to the World Wildlife Zoo on the west side when Nate’s parents were in town. It was quite a drive, but we had a great time. We picked a really good day to go. It was overcast most of the morning and almost all the animals were out and moving about. I was impressed with the number of walk through buildings and covered walking areas. A lot of shade to keep things cool.
