Jacquie and I had no idea it was the Metro Toronto Zoo's thirtieth birthday event when we set out for the Zoo yesterday around noon or so. However, when we arrived, we knew something was afoot. The main parking lot was filled to the brim, and we had to park way back in the gravel lot. It was a bit of a hike to the main entrance.

Not much to report on the zoo. It never seems to change much, which could explain why it's been in financial troubles for so many years. Once you've seen it, you have to love going there to want to return any time soon.

We wandered around a bit, stopped in some areas that neither of us have seen in awhile, like the Australia area. I forgot all about the kangaroo walkabout. Heheh. I find it pretty cool that some of the animals are as curious about us as we are about them. The 'roos are one such animal, and they always look quite inquisitive.

Aside from the zoo's birthday, it was also my father's birthday over the weekend. Friday, specifically, but we had dinner plans for Saturday night out at Tucker's Marketplace. I ate too much.

Other than that, it was quiet weekend. I got in some DVD watching, including throwing off sleep to watch the whole ALF: Season One DVD set.
