the Zoo

Grandma had a great idea - going to the Woodland Park Zoo! We took Zachary and Mommy too. It was a little wet, but I wore my raincoat. We saw the flamingo exhibit and can't wait to see the new penguin area next summer. My hand isn't as big as a hippo foot. Not even close. I liked seeing the hippos hiding in the water and the zebras and gazelles were fun too.
This little fox is the same color as Auntie Tracy's Gizmo! Isn't he cute?
I rode the carousel two times. The carousel ponies have names - I rode on Robbie and That's Our Boy. Mommy and Grandma took turns riding with me.
We saw the farm animals too. The cows were stinky! And the fat fat piggies!
My favorite was the night house and I went through 4 times to see the bats! I want to sit outside and look for bats at my house or at the River House. I also really liked looking at the map and deciding where we would go and how we would get there. I liked the gift shop and otters too, but didn't like it when I spilled hot chocolate on my legs...
Mommy says we can go back to the zoo soon since we didn't make it to the elephants or monkeys. Maybe Grandma can come then too.
Love, Elena
