fauna

El Paso has a zoo! It's not as big as the Calgary zoo, but it has lots of animals, and it is very pretty.

The set up of the zoo was quite different, and there was water between almost every animal and the crowd. It was nice as you got a better view because they don't need to have the fence so high (and it gives the air some humidity).




Some of the trees!

That one is my favorite photo as well! I had to wait forever to get it as there was a really big crowd. We went for a hike yesterday morning and were complaining about the heat until we saw how much snow Calgary got!
