At the Zoo
On Friday we went to the zoo with Suzanne, Landon, Alia, g-ma Mary, Crystal, and Charlotte. We had a blast! We watched the elephant program and saw how they are trying to help the elephants adapt to their new surroundings (they made their area much bigger and it has water now and seems more fun for the elephants). As they were working with one elephant, the other would be on the side doing the same things trying to get food - it was so funny to watch it trying to get the attention. By the elephants is a large iron elephant that sprays water out of its trunk every so often, sometimes it's sounds like it's going to sneeze and other times it sings a song. Landon loved playing by this elephant and enjoyed cooling off.
We also got to see the white alligator. The picture I took shows it, but it's through glass, so it's not the best picture.
Landon wanted to see the snakes and Jenna was crying that she didn't want to, but when we got in there, she loved them - she even touched the glass (something her mommy won't even do).
My favorite animal isn't there anymore, the polar bear. I guess they are going to be re-doing their habitat so they aren't there right now.
We also some some baby geese swimming with 2 adults. They were pretty cute.
Even though the zoo has overhauled the children's play area, I found the egg that we put Jenna in when she was just a few months old and took another picture. I'll be fun to compare the 2 to see how much she's grown in 4 years.
