Woodland Park Zoo (Augst 7, 2012)

The following Tuesday Olivia and I went to the zoo with the McCarrons.  It was Olivia's first trip to the zoo and she absolutely LOVED seeing all of the animals! 

First stop was the African Savannah.  We saw a giraffe, two ostriches, hippos, and the lions. 


Kade and Aidan stopped to pose on the hippo...


The male lion was absolutely amazing!  He was walking all around roaring so loudly.  Olivia was mesmerized...


Olivia was really good and spent most of the time in the backpack...



The orangutans, monkeys and gorillas were really funny too.  One of the orangutans kept covering himself with pieces of cloth.  If you look closely at the bottom right corner picture, there is a baby gorilla in the bottom left hand corner.  He was SO cute!


After a couple of hours we stopped for lunch...






I always love the flamingos!


 
Olivia's favorite was the penguins.  She could easily see them because they kept swimming right up to the glass, and their enclosure goes down to the walkway...
 



 
 Soon after the penguins she was down and out!  It was a fun and exciting day!
