Living desert 2011

Two mistakes on yesterday’s blog- the restaurant was called Parker Light house and Sherri and Gerry did go on the Queen Mary

March 6 Tuesday- Sherri, Gerry and I spend the day at the Living Desert in Palm Desert. We start out by feeding the giraffes. They had a baby in June . Is he ever cute. We walk up to the Africian area then enjoy the huge train display. Now it’s time for lunch we go to the Meekrat café in the park. Sherri decides she had enough but Gerry and I go tour the hospital and visit the Mexician wolves, foxes, bob cats and a few more North Americian animals. 2pm time for the half hour show

Jan. 5 -Indio-Monday- It is still beautiful and sunny in the 80’s. Today we go to the Living Desert in Palm Desert. We take a picnic lunch as there is so much to see. They have added onto the train layout. We also went to their butterfly world and watched them hatch. I always enjoy the hospital tour. We go for dinner at the park. They have meatloaf with all the trimmings including salad and desert for $ 4.00. You can’t beat that.
