First trip to the zoo!

We took Olivia to the zoo yesterday - it was little cooler than it has been lately so there wasn't the concern of her overheating. It had rained most of the night and morning, so as soon as it was done we loaded in to car and headed to the zoo. She had a really good time and we can't wait to take her again in the Fall!

Her first animal was a black bear...it was uneventful.


Next, we came to the camels - we opted to not pay the $5 to ride them.


Olivia is waving at Mr. Camel

Now, she's just excited because the camel is pretty close.
Now, we are trying to lure the camel closer....
Closer....

Hi Mr. Camel, meet Chick Chick...

Will you be my friend?

Bye, friend!! I was so great to meet you!

Look at the zebras, Dad!!


Watch the excitement unfold of seeing giraffes and elephants for the first time....
















Daddy's ear is just cool as the animals here! (She played with his ears all day.)
