Zoo Friends

A couple of weeks ago we went to the zoo for the first time since being back in Seattle. Last year the girls and I went almost every week. We love it.

It was good to get re-acquainted with our buddies. You know, the lion, the siamang's (aka "bubble" monkeys), the gorillas, the elephants. I think they were happy to see us too.

The lion greeted us with a few loud roars.

 The bubble monkey's sang us a nice song.
 One of the elephant's danced the can-can when she saw us (she always does that). The orangutan peered woefully through the glass right into Lainy's eyes. And the baby giraffe leaned close to Leah to say hi (I think they were born about the same time).


We had fun. And isn't it amazing that we can go to the zoo in January and not freeze?! It's good to be back.
