Edmonton Valley Zoo...formerly known as Storyland Valley Zoo
...and if I reach way back...to my end of high school days....we partied in the bush very close to here...pre grad parties.
....sorry....was introducing Edmonton Valley Zoo....great spot for youngsters as they still showcase everything in a storyland type atmosphere perfect for young children.Owned and operated by the City of Edmonton,the zoo is highlighting this year the rare birth of 2 red Pandas.Lucy the elephant has been entertaining kids and adults alike here for over 30 years.So please come have a look at our day at the zoo with our little nieces and nephew.

We just spent the day at the zoo, Rick. What a wonderful place for the little ones to see what they do not normally encounter. (I do feel for the animals though.)
This is a wonderful collection showcasing your day, Rick...now, who had more fun? You, or the kids? :o)
