» The Santo Inacio Zoo
We were having lunch with the family one Saturday, when my granddaughter Sara, told us about a zoo she had visited, and said that we should go there, as it was a great place to spend the day, and would only take an hour to get there. On her recommendation we decided to act on her suggestion, and I must say that we were impressed at the way the animals were cared for, and I will be sharing some photos of our visit over the next few weeks.![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFR_iayp_gJReI4Z-yrlSWG4vz326CVzcXgAZfwofAXHxV6xT3VhPSL1qw6r3kWZgnpbi9geA9JakoI-URay863rwN_KXIc3L_gwYzbCHGpX1adfA4r-785aOJGN2-3UbBl4m93FG86cQ/s640/DSC07235.JPG) |
It took us I hour and 30 minutes on the highway to reach the Zoo, and this is the entrance. |

On a return visit, I'll be more careful to get their names, as I stupidly forgot to take pictures of them. |

This is where we had a delicious cooked meal. We had intended to spend the day, but it was so hot, that we left after eating lunch, but we both agreed to make a return visit at a later date, and I shall look forward to it, besides,.. I want to get those names. |
