Calgary Zoo Inspire Members Perks

As per routine ;D I am over at Family Fun Calgary today talking about what we have been up to at the zoo with our new memberships.

Here are the pictures you didn't see there:
The penguins (finally!) don't have a regular line up and since we had a penguin lover with us we had to pop in before the tour started.
I am sure the line ups will pick up again with Stampede and summer holidays. The best time to go seems to be early morning before the crowds start


And now you can see them outside too! I can't wait to see them playing on the grass.

And then it was time for the tour! Although the baby was already tired out by then! But she was quiet and still enough that a butterfly landed just above her!
The butterflies love Boyd!
That's a caterpillar. I never thought about the fact that the butterflies mate and lay eggs in the pavilion as well.

After we skipped out on the second half of the tour we took a quick trip over to Grady's favorite place. African Savannah
Up close and personal with a meerkat

Looks like we are leaving just in time!
