Giant zoo-with its own cablecar it's so big!

We hit the national zoo, right in downtown Pretoria, a depressed area but inside the gates it is amazing!!!

The ride costs 4 rand a ticket-40 cents!

We eat lunch next to the elephants and a very happy Katie!  She says this is the best part of Africa so far!

Cable car is amazing and takes us way high up to an amazing view of the city and to the great cats.

Kelly takes lots of lion photos for her friend Mason to convince her to come visit.

Lioness was hungry and knocking on the door for her food

We saw hippos, warthogs and porcupine which Charlie and I had just read about in his Africa abc book from the Story's!

Another scary sign, I have Kelly hold up four fingers because at times when she is on the loose we need to take cover as well!

Another amazing part was the 3 story bird cage probably as big as a football field we think our friend James would be in heaven!  

Dad & Charlie like the flamingos, we then find penguins, lemurs, snakes!

We are beat but can't wait for another visit to see the rest!
