Zoo





Who doesn't love the zoo?! We try to go every year, either in the Spring or Fall. About an hour after we left our house for the zoo it started sprinkling. We kept driving hoping that by the time we were finished with lunch, the rain will have stopped. Thank God it did because we would have had two disappointed kiddos! (And parents!)
This year we went the weekend before Halloween so everything was set up for Boo at the Zoo. We went right after lunch to avoid all the people and we were out of there before Boo at the Zoo began. It was wonderful.

The last time we went to the zoo, B was still in a stroller and didn't get as excited about the animals as he did this time around. When an animal would come out of hiding, he would point at it and say "there ya are!"
We were almost on the way out of the park, last stop was the monkeys, gorillas, chimps, and orangutans. What maniacs! We were looking at the monkeys when we heard a huge bang. There was a mad orangutan in the yard next to him. He rammed himself into the metal door where the zookeepers come in to feed, etc. Then he began throwing sticks up at us. Eeeek. Time to go!
What a fun Saturday!
