Visited The Roosevelt Park Zoo in Minot, ND

Aloha Everyone,

This is the oldest zoo in North Dakota. Today there were many families with children enjoying the pleasant weather — sun before the anticipated storms. According to Wikipedia, in 2021, 115,805 guests visited the park. That’s a good number for a zoo located in a small rural community.






My favorites animals are Brown Bears and Bengal tigers plus African penguins.








Stopped by Target to buy packages of extra-large size bandages. At least these would suffice until I find the usual ones at Walmart.

Healthy lunch at Panera located near our hotel, Americinn by Windham in Minot. When we returned, there was an ongoing children’s pizza party in the hotel pool. I don’t think the pool is heated but from their happy faces and shouting, temperature of the water didn’t seem to matter. Our room has a walk-in shower. J.J. and I both enjoyed nice long hot showers.



Aloha -- Cathi
