April treated us to a snowy winter trip to the Toronto Zoo on Remembrance Day, where we spent our time capturing photos and ideas together. 

We took the GO train out of the suburbs, with a minute of silence on the TTC at 11:11 in the morning.

We had kept warm by jumping between pavilions, soaking up the greenhouse, and we decided to skip the Canada area this time. We missed an exit in one of the buildings and re-entered from the outside, where we caught a sense of deja vu seeing the macaws again when that exit looped into the entrance.

Inside, we visited the jellyfish, monkeys, bugs and hippos.

We saw tigers, wolves and eagles in the outside areas, with short walks between each.

Beside our snacks from home, at Tim Horton’s we tried the salted caramel butter tart, along with a reliable herb and garlic pastry, and at McDonald's we ate Junior Chickens and fries with 7-Eleven slushies before heading home to our wild animal, Joe Bean.

Thank you for reading,

Until next time!
