Lions, Tigers, and Elephant Asses....OH MY!

We took Macie to the zoo for the first time. I don't think we expected much as far as excitement from her, but she really couldn't have cared less about being there. There were a lot of animals out and we tried pointing to them, but she would just look at the ground and the other people around. Really, sometimes the people at the zoo are more entertaining to watch than the animals!!! I took a ton of pictures of all the animals we saw, but I won't bore you with them. I will just post some that I thought we good....or funny!


This lion was mad about something and was roaring so loud, I thought it was "staged" and coming over a speaker system.


This is really how close we were (there was plexiglass between us) and she was stalking a boy behind us. It was really quite creepy. She would follow him with her eyes where ever he went.



This was our greeting from the Elephant. One of these elephants died two days after we were there.....how sad. Now they only have one.










Macie got a great nap in at the Zoo!

Macie and Daddy. Do you see the Baboon in the back? Don't worry, Macie didn't either.

Kate loved the zoo early on, it took Ryan until he was about 1 1/2 years old before he really started to enjoy it. It is a great place to go to just get out of the house. did you join? If not - remember we have guest passes if you want them.
