Day 3- BC Vacation...

For Seven years now Kendal and I have been planning to go to the

Calgary Zoo...
Well..this summer we finally did it..
and we had a blast..
I think Jeremy did too, but his favorite part didn't seem to include the animals..



But instead the ice cream and the train...
I guess we will have to go back when the kids are older...

This was the Tiger Express...



Again ...Jeremy was more interested in the birds..
then say...the elephants...



Spike is in the Guiness World Book of Records
for having the largest dental caps..
19 inches long...

The world's largest dental caps measure 50 cm (19 in) long, 13 cm (5 in) in diameter and weigh 13 kg (28 lb) each. They were fixed onto a pair of cracked tusks belonging to Spike, a resident Asian elephant, at the Calgary Zoo, Alberta, Canada during a 3 hour 30 minute operation on July 4, 2002. The stainless steel caps were designed and manufactured by the Southern Alberta Institute of Technology with metal donated by Corus Steel and adhesive by 3M (all Canada).

I have created a blog strictly with pictures of the zoo...
rather then bore everyone..
