We took our time getting up this morning with a goal of being at the Minnesota Zoo at 9:00 a.m. when it opened. It was a very cold morning but the sun spent a lot of time out and although my husband won’t agree, I think it was a beautiful morning.
We focused on our favorites, the Grizzly Coast, the tigers, and the Minnesota Trail and walked a few other parts. My tigers weren’t very photogenic but considering the thousands of pictures I have of them from previous visits, I guess we can give them a day off.
I really enjoyed the birds (both wild and in captivity on the Minnesota Trail the beaver family (parents and one kit were all out), the otters and the baby lynx. It was also neat to see the black bear add on to the Minnesota trail which was new. The bear was hibernating in his den unfortunately. Here are some pictures:
Then we went to the Mall of America again for a quick lunch, to finish walking the mall, and make last minute purchases. We were home by mid-afternoon to relax in the hotel and visited Mongo’s Grill in Maple Grove. I wish there was one closer. I love the concept!
