A couple weeks ago my family and I traveled to Calgary for an engagement photo shoot I had scheduled with one of my 2010 wedding couples. It was a fantastic photo shoot (watch for their blog post in the next day or two), and after I returned to the hotel my husband, Sean, and I decided to make our way to the Calgary Zoo with our two girls. (Thanks again Rachelle and Huan for the coupons). I must say the Calgary Zoo is fantastic; however, I wish we had made more time to enjoy it, unfortunately by the time we got there we only had about 90 minutes before it closed, but we did still manage to get to quite a few exhibits. The sun was shining, the zoo was packed with other families, and both my husband and I were exhausted from the insane drive we had done the night before (I won’t dwell on details, but let’s just say checking in to a hotel at 4am is a whole new experience for me)….but even with all these factors we wanted to take our daughters out for a nice afternoon…we were determined!
The girls did have a great afternoon; Sedona slept almost the whole time and Kamaya was more interested in this playground than any animal that was there (aahh, it’s so crazy the things parents will do for their kids).
Sean and I were so tired by the time we returned to the hotel. And as we struggled with the elevator card key, we just looked at eachother and smiled…..we both knew we were getting room service for supper!
Here is a snapshot of our adventures at the Calgary Zoo.
