Zoo Trip

We took a family trip to the Santa Ana Zoo last weekend.  We had a lot of fun watching the silly monkeys..

And climbing on all the rails, like silly monkeys.  








I told Tommy to kiss this giant frog, but it didn't turn into a prince.  Maybe he did it wrong.  

I practiced my jungle cat noises at this exhibit...

And my safari skills driving this pretend jeep.   

Then I decided it'd be more fun to test my real jeep driving skills.  Tommy was my wingman, and Dad was our animal spotter. 



I may have stopped a little too short and thrown Tommy over the windshield, but he seemed ok.  

After some turtle wrangling, we all rode the zoo train.

Choo choo!

We even went through a dark tunnel, and I held Mom's hand so she wouldn't be scared.  

We posed for a picture by the caboose...







And here's a second take, where I'm not strangling Tommy.  

We even got to milk this pretend cow!  Water came out of her utters when we did it right, and sometimes she would even moo!

Then it was on to the merry-go-round.  I chose a traditional pretty horse, and Tommy thought he could outrun me on his ostrich. 

Twins hatched from the same egg!

Then it was time for the petting zoo.  

Tommy was loving the sheep...

But I loved the goats.  I think this one loved me back, and the next one seemed to like it when Tommy twirled his ear.  

Here we are feeding the goats.  I think Tommy would have fed himself to them if he could have figured out how to crawl through the fence.
