One of the places Hope likes to stop is at the curly-que water fountain.
Both kids love going in the observation tube underneath the sea lions...
Because they get to see this happen right above them.
And now that Gideon can read, and he found that there are animals in the zoo from Ethiopia, he checks all the signs and then reads them to Hope.
The giraffe was quite close.
And the lioness was hanging out up the tree. I videoed it coming down. It was really neat to see it up there. Apparently people forgot it is a cat, because they were wondering how it got up the tree. Then a few people talked about telling zoo employees the lion was stuck and needed help down. Some laughed when I told them that he zoo would merely call the fire department and they'd get the cat out. Others didn't get it.
And with the zoo membership that my brother Aaron's family gave us for Christmas last year, we get free parking at the zoo and a bunch of free train rides. Gideon and Hope loved riding the train! We'll go back soon!
