Monthly Zoo Trip

Since having the family membership to the zoo, we go every month (to make it worth our while!). A month had passed since our last trip so we decided to go after church today and hope to enjoy the time before the heat of the day. It was a nice plan, but didn't quite go the way we had wanted. There were a TON of people and it was very warm. But, we found some shade and drank a lot so it wasn't too bad.

 Kangaroos lounging in the shade. The one on the left had a joey! The zookeeper said that it was big enough to come out of the pouch and had hair on it. Pretty cool.

 Being silly with the kangaroos!

 Nathan wanted me to take a picture. He likes zebras. His new favorite show is Lion Guard and he likes to say what the zebras say "Panic and flee!" His version doesn't quite sound like that but Barry enlightened me to what he was saying.

 Back by the grasses the alligator was peeking out of the water (look down the log and a little to the right). Zach loved it.

 Checking out the flamingoes (another fun word to hear him say)

We saw 4 giraffes and can't wait for the rhino's habitat is finished as they'll be neighbors.
