Zoo, Train and Japanese Garden


Today Lily, Kelly and I visited the zoo. We arrived when it opened at 9 AM, and stayed until mid-afternoon. Lily really enjoyed seeing all of the animals. We especially liked the butterfly house, where butterflies were everywhere and even landed on us. :o) They are still working on the Africa exhibit, but have opened the first phase. It was very nice.

The top picture is Lily at the zoo in her San Antonio Zoo hat.

After we left the zoo, we took a ride on the train in Brackenridge Park. It made a stop at the Japanese Tea Garden, so we got off and toured the Garden, too. The city has begun a restoration project there, and the Garden looks so much better than it did. It was lovely.

The bottom picture is Lily at the Tea Garden. She is so beautiful. :o)

We had lunch at Cheesy Janes with Kelly, then went to see Gran and Chuy. We were exhausted by the time we finally got home, but we sure had a great day!
