SF ZOO
We went on a docent guided bicycle tour of the SF Zoo on Sunday before the park opened and let me tell you, docents aside, by bike with an empty park is most definitely the best way to get around the zoo! It was an informative trip and I had a great time with my wife and a friend that invited us to go. Here's a few pictures I snapped along the way. The higher res ones I took with my D60, the lower res snaps were off of an all-in-one camcorder/camera kind of device that takes mediocre pictures, but you can't beat the convenience of it.
This grizzly bear was looking for fish

I think this guy is a not too distant relative

These two were good buddies

So how do I get a pet meerkat?

I'm pretty sure I've seen this guy following me around before

There aren't many left of this majestic cat

After all that hard work, it was time to reward myself with a healthy lunch.

And Brooke was lovin' the chocolate shake

After we ate lunch we headed back to the Zoo by way of the beach and saw what a sad mess the bay has become. The whole beach was covered with black sand that absolutely reeked of oil.
