Oh my, we were late in getting to the Sacramento Zoo and the small parking lot in William Land Park was almost full. And, the big yellow school busses were dropping off school aged kids. It was going to be a tough day of photography! I’m guessing the big cats already enjoyed their bones, because the ones that were in their enclosure were just about to nap.

One cheetah had begun to rest when the other one came over and this happened.





When we got to the giraffe enclosure, Cheyenne, the new young giraffe was out in the yard. What a treat!







All in all, it was a pretty good morning at the zoo after all. Next we went to the WPA Rock Garden, and I’ll show you that in my next post.
Oh my God..cuteness overload 😍

Thanks Dan! Yes, the yellow busses are a omen. I just try to remember my kids and grandkids used to be on those busses. Heck, I used to go with them!

I agree. I worked as in an elementary school for 25 years. It’s really the crowds that become the problem, not the kids.
