Our Zoo Trip

Over the summer I took the kids, including my wonderful niece Caylin, to the Zoo. The weather was perfect and all the animals were out basking in the sun. We kind of did our trip in reverse by starting out in the Africa section, my FAVORITE part! The coolest thing we saw was this Orangutan just chillin' right next to the glass. He/She even had what looked like a smile on her face and the kids were able to go right up to her and she didn't care. Gotta love Zoo animals!My next favorite part was seeing this gorilla. He just laid there baring it all, in peace. I loved it.The polar bears were by far the most playful. We had the opportunity to watch them play hard right in front of us. They would get a barrel, throw it into the water, and then jump high in the air and land on top of it. They were very entertaining and so much fun to watch. Before leaving, we had to make sure to feed the birds. They boys absolutely loved doing this. Cameron was a little nervous and needed some help holding the cup still. Austin had no problems. Caylin was sure nice to buy the kids a cup of nectar. Thank you Caylin! It was a great trip to the Zoo.
