San Francisco Zoo

It's another beautiful, sunny day in central California - let's go to the zoo! Look at the baby giraffe! The zoo is also the home to a newborn gorilla, but she was inside and we could only see her on video.
The San Francisco Zoo must have some partnership with Fisher-Price because their logo was everywhere. Throughout the zoo there were great photo opportunities (like this giraffe one) which had the Fisher-Price logo at the bottom. And there was an entire snack station devoted to Fisher-Price Little People - tables, umbrellas, etc.

This is Elena's favorite.

Uncle Al warned us of poo throwing animals, but we only witnessed them spraying... This rhino sprayed, and we saw the tapir spray too.
Elena was super excited to see the hippopotamus and we made sure it was going to be a stop on our zoo tour (after a few turns on the carousel), but we never found it! We finally had to ask a zoo employee where the hippo was at. They informed us that the hippo had been old and passed away. Elena was disappointed, but a bag of pink cotton candy eased her pain (and her sweet tooth ;-0).
