Point Defiance Zoo and Aquarium

We headed out on our fall road trip by taking the Coho Ferry from Victoria to Port Angeles. The mountains were hazy from smoke due to recent wildfires. 

The following morning, it was foggy heading into Tacoma and looked like we were on a bridge to nowhere as we crossed the Tacoma Narrows Bridge. 

Our first main stop was the Point Defiance Zoo and Aquarium. It's surprising we've never discovered this one before! It was really good and I hope we have time to stop again on our way back. In addition to the zoo and aquarium, there's also botanical gardens and lots of trails that we didn't get to. 

There's quite a large exhibit about the wolves that were near extinction and how the
zoo breeding program helped bring them back. 

Cute frog out on the flowers!



See the worm? It's lunch time.



Sleepy otter

HUGE flower! Hand for size reference.
