We received an annual membership to the ABQ Zoo, Aquarium and Botanical Gardens from our FHCC family - thanks so much! Today was a pleasant day around 60 degrees so we decided to take the boys and girl out for some fun. We've all been working hard at school and home and needed a little family time out and about.Sandy's parents drove in the same day my parents flew out. They've been here all week - helping us out and having fun with the boys and girl.The ABQ zoo was the first stop, and it was quite impressive. They had a lot of animals and a lot of really cool animals. Several animals were ones we've never seen before like the black jaguar, and we've been to quite a few zoos. The exhibits were very well done so that you could see the animals very well. What are they looking at, you ask?A very lively polar bear. It helped that the animals were quite active.I had my hands full today.There aren't a lot of trees in ABQ, but they had some beautiful ones at the zoo.Matt enjoyed the ducks. It was a feeding frenzy.The boys and girl were tiring out so we headed out to the botanical gardens next.Even in the fall, it was a great place. I imagine it would be fabulous in the spring and summer. There was a Japanese garden there too - I love those. Sandy and I don't exactly match - she's city chic and I'm athletic casual.
It was a fun day, and now we know where to take our family and friends who come visit from out of town!
