Zoo Church

In the aquarium, next to where the sea turtle usually hides, but we couldn't find him that day.

We stood Alden next to the penguin so we could measure his height during future visits to the zoo.

We went to the zoo last Sunday and on Saturday evening, we jokingly told Auntie Debra that we were going to "zoo church". We were going in the morning when the zoo wasn't so busy, during church. And Samantha heard us tell Debra that and woke up on Sunday morning and said "I wanna go to zoo church." One more indication that we need to start watching what we say around her!

It was little chilly. We weren't prepared for the cool breeze and the 47 degree weather for the zoo, as we had saw the high was supposed to be 79 degrees, not thinking that it would be reached at 3pm or so. We spent more of the time at this zoo visit inside. We did the aquarium first and I held Alden and his little legs and arms just kicked and kicked when we looked at the penguins! He kind of looked like a penguin swimming! We saw the gorillas next and liked watching the orangutans swing from vine to vine and one of them even starting playing with us and swung right on into the glass at us. We also saw the Tigers and Lions and the Giraffes and the Seals.
