Phoenix Zoo

I don't get the computer very often for long periods of time so I need to sneak it to blog better.  Plus I don't have a lot of stories since I'm sick a lot of the time.  I have to tell you that I look at a lot of people's blogs regularly but I have no idea how to add them to mine.  I need to sit down and figure that out or just suck up my pride and ask someone to help me.  Yeah.  I'm pathetic.

This experience was almost a year ago but we loved it!  It was amazing.  We went on a day that you and a guest got in for free and Emma was free because she was so young.  It is a HUGE zoo.  We were amazed at it.  It was a lot like the San Diego Zoo but not that big.  Emma really liked the giraffs.  They were about five feet away from us.  They even had little babies that were trying to eat with them as well.

Andy and my favorite spot was the tiger.  We sat there for a good 30 seconds searching for the tiger when I noticed other people were looking up.  Who looks up at a tiger exhibit?  So I followed their gazes and what do you know?  The tiger had
 climbed up a 20 foot tree and was in the top.  She was just sitting there watching the lions.  I honestly think she was hu
nting them.  (It wasn't that hard since they just lay there and ignore everyone.)  Can you tell I'm not good at this formatting?  I can't get it to go straight.  You have to look closely for the tiger in the green.  It was an amazing sight.    I can't wait until they have the next free day later this year.  Definitely worth it.  It would be worth it even if we had to pay full price but if you can save over $40, why wouldn't you?
