the zoo!!

Happy New Year's!  =)  Since the weather was unbelievably warm, we decided to take a trip to the zoo, especially since the boys have never been there.  Unfortunately, the sky was overcast, so the day was a little dreary, but it was great to have Uncle Jimmy and Ah-ma with us.

This was my highlight.  It has been many, many moons since the last time I've been to the zoo.  But they built this thing called the O-line (or orangutan-line) where the orangutans can cross these high ropes from one house to the other, through a small part of the zoo.  It was neat watching them cross from part of one side to the other.












Reaching his/her destination, the orangutan climbed down the tower and slid down the rope.  It was neat to watch since you usually don't get much movement from watching the animals.

Gazelle...




The cute elephants...

We only spent a few hours there.  The reptile house was one of the last things we went to, and halfway through it, William said he was done with the zoo.  He said, "Dada, I don't want to see any more aminals." (He sometimes gets his m's and n's mixed up in words.)   =)  And so, we called it a day.  =)
