Sunday at the Zoo

 We had unseasonably warm day on Sunday so we ventured to the zoo.  It felt good to get out of the house and walk around for the whole afternoon.  It was also nice to soak up some warm sun rays for a change.  All of the animals were out but, many food stands and kid stations were closed.  We made the best of a beautiful day!  It sure felt like a bit of summer!

This was a picture of the elephant crossing.  Today, the elephant was crossing over from one side of the field to the other.  The reason they do this is to separate the boy elephant from the girls.  This zoo has 5 girls and 1 boy.  The trainer told us it was the first day the elephants have been outside it quite awhile.


 Next came a little climbing.  This structure was made of metal ropes that bounced around as all the kids  tried to climb to the top!

I liked this picture because she was sticking out her tongue trying to remain balanced.  It was a constant wiggle on this structure!
