The Zoo

HIGH: We had a nice day at the zoo with Uncle Greg :)
LOW: The weather was a little yucky so we didn't get to on the rides :(
Yesterday we spent a great day at the zoo.  Uncle Greg met us and we all had a blast.
The weather was perfect when we first got to the zoo and the kids had a blast watching a show.  They brought out different birds and snakes, it was really cool.
After the show ended we just walked around the zoo and enjoyed all the animals.  The kids had a blast hanging out with Uncle Greg and talking about everything they saw.
These pictures aren't the greatest (I forgot to change my settings but I didn't want to miss anything) but while we were visiting the gorillas the baby gorilla noticed the kids watching him and came over to the window. 
Then he started playing peek a boo with the kids!  It was sooo cute!  The kids would run from one side of the windows to the other side and the gorilla would follow them and jump up on the window!
I couldn't get over it!  The kids had so much fun and I think the gorilla had a good time too.  They did this for like 10 minutes!  Then other people came over and the gorilla got spooked and went and hid :(
The kids even had fun playing with all the display stuff at the rainforest.  The kids love the zoo and I feel bad that we didn't get there more this summer.  We only went a few times and usually we go a ton in the summer.

Right when we were done with the animals and we were heading to do the train ride and carousel it started to downpour!  I felt so bad that the kids didn't get to do the rides but they didn't seem to mind, they had a great time checking out the animals and hanging out with Uncle Greg.
