Cameron Park Zoo






On Friday my friend Jessica and I decided to our kids to the zoo. Here in Killeen we dont actually have a zoo so we drove an hour to Waco to go to the zoo. I realized with the couple of different zoos I have seen since living in 3 different states the last few years how spoiled and lucky I was to have the Denver Zoo. Cameron Park Zoo is tiny and we made it through the whole zoo in 2 hours and that included a stop for nachos and a drink. Nevertheless the girls loved it. I think the best exhibit was the jaguars and across from them was the coyotes so not only were we out of the sun for those but the animals were actually awake and doing something-as you can tell from the pics it was hard to find animals to take pics with!!!! Alot of the animals were sleeping I think because of the heat. Bella says her favorite thing to see was the Meerkats and Lena says her favorite thing was the elephants both of which were awake. When we got in the car at 1230 to leave Jessicas temp said 98! We will have to keep trying out different zoos until we find one as great as the Denver Zoo although it was nice to not have the crowd the Dever Zoo ALWAYS has!!!!

I know it's far but Dallas and Ft. Worth have really good Zoos! We use to go to the Ft. Worth one growing up.
