Toured through the Living Desert, a combination zoo and conservatory. Saw lots of desert plants and animals. They also had an African exhibition area. It was interesting to see some of the animals we saw on safari, but not as nice to see them in cages. Made me appreciate the safari last winter.
We treated ourselves to a fancy supper at the Cork Tree to celebrate Leah's completion of her UofW degree in International Development Studies. It was very decadent!

Egret with large plume feathers
Night Heron under a tree. Smaller than the Great Blue Heron that we are familiar with in Holland.
This badger was digging a whole to find his previously buried supper, a dead squirrel!
A magnificent sample of a wolf. Look at his marvelous fur!!
In the Africa section of the zoo we say this antelope feeding off a totally dry bush.
Can't imagine there are many nutrients in it.
Leah is sampling Don's gin martini.
Her Californiatini is with the orange slice and my Summer Breeze cocktail in the foreground.
Toasting a wonderful holiday.
My supper of salmon, spinach and Yukon gold potatoes.
Don's supper of scallops with Himalayan brown rice.
Leah's supper of duck with sweet potato and green beans
Desserts too!
Leah and I shared a sampler of fresh fruit, mocha creme brulee, sorbet, and turtle slice. Yummy!!
Don's dessert was a sampler of different types of creme brulee.
