After a bit of discussion and debate we decided to visit the SF Zoo on Sunday. It was a great decision! Neither of us had ever been there and we were pleasantly surprised at the beauty of the place and the atmosphere. The zoo is right on the ocean and very close to Golden Gate Park. The giraffes live side by side with the zebras and ostrich. Jake, however, only had eyes (and patience!) for one thing- the big cats. He seemed to be saying,"Yeah, yeah, yeah... the giraffe IS tall, Mommy, but let's get to the good stuff!" I have to hand it to him, the lions and tigers were truly impressive- one tiger was so close we could have reached out and touched it. Not that we would have wanted to, as it was growling as it passed by! Jake loved it. We also visited Pumba and Timon (a warthog and meerkat for those of you that haven't watched Lion King lately). Tanner slept the entire visit (that's him covered by the blanket on Brian's chest.). It was a beautiful day. We liked it so much, we bought a year membership so we can go back anytime.
