Cheyenne Mountain Zoo

Joyce took us to the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo in Colorado Springs and I think it is one of the best zoos I have been to. It is set against the Colorado mountains and all the animals seemed to be out and about and excited to see us.


Our favorite animal of the day was the Giraffes. They were very excited to eat our lettuce and got very close to us. I love Joyce's face in these two pictures.








We rode up the mountain on a sky ride and found that the top of the mountain was covered with snow.


On the sky ride we were able to see the bears, mountain goats and cougars.


I had fun taking pictures of the kids and of the tiger too.
