Fun at the Zoo

We had a lot of fun at the zoo on Tuesday. It's only 8 bucks per adult and the kids were free since they are so young. it was really worth it for how cheap it was. we're used to the cheap zoo by our house which is 6 bucks to get in and has a tiny fraction of what we saw at this zoo. I bundled us all up really warm since it was only 50 degrees that day, but it was actually pretty warm in the sun. we had a nice day.Here's a baby orangutan that came up to moma to show her his food. it was pretty cute.

Thumper, just chillin out.

The kids.

As you can see, the place was empty. it was nice. most exhibits, we had all to ourselves. the animals were more active too because of the cold so we got to see a lot of action.

Here's the merry go round.

The elephants.

The zebras

The giraffe's

This cheetah was new to the park and he was still getting used to his environment. he kept pacing back and forth and for some reason did not like my brother in law. every time he would come up to him, he would try to attack him and hiss. he would jump up on the glass. it was cool but i felt sorry for the poor guy. he was stressed out to be in a new place.

At the end of the day, we got to ride the little train.

After the zoo, we went across the street to "This is the Place". for those of you that don't know what that is, you can read about it here http://www.thisistheplace.org/titp_monument.html

We had a great day!
