A trip to the tropics - for an hour


    

This past Sunday we took Sula to the Como Zoo and Conservatory in St. Paul.  We needed to escape this cold weather and just imagine for a brief moment that we were on a tropical family vacation.  As a bonus, Sula got to enjoy some heat and humidity, which provided a bit of relief from the cold she is battling.  

The last time I visited Como Park was back in 2002.  We all decided that it had been way too long.  They have made some impressive improvements, including a new rainforest exhibit.  This trip has motivated me to look in to volunteer opportunities at the Conservatory.
