A Day at the Zoo

Andy, Drew and I went to the Franklin Park Zoo yesterday. Neither of us had ever been there. I wasn't crazy about how we got there....the GPS took us down Blue Hill Ave. But once we got there we had fun. We especially liked the lion and the gorillas. The lion put on a show for us as we walked by; he stood up and started to roar very loud and then fell over onto his back and started rolling around in the dirt..it was quite a site. The Gorillas were getting fed as we went by so it was exciting to see them running after the fruit. Drew did NOT like the flamingos, they smelled really bad and he grimmaced and whined when we got to them. I wasn't crazy about it either so we went through the bird exhibit rather quickly.
It was nice to be outside and doing something different with our baby, but Andy and I did think the zoo was a little depressing. The conditions were not that great and seeing animals in cages never really excited me. Regardless, it was nice to have family time together!

We didn't go in the petting zoo, but took pictures anyway - how cute is my brown cow!

Spoiled again...but he does love his new Gorilla!

"Thanks for taking me to the zoo Daddy!"
