Trip to the zoo

Friday, June 27

The summer started our kind of hot but then settled down and was relatively mild the rest of the summer.  I took the kids to the zoo at the end of June and the weather was perfect!

These are 3 bear cubs that are growing up.  This is the first time I have ever really seen these bears active.  They were moving all around their enclosure.
Our favorite place for a zoo picture!
This is how these girls "strike a pose"!
More statues to pose on
Riding the carousel - The last time we were at the zoo, Kay was very upset that we didn't allow her to ride the carousel, so I let her do it this time.  The older kids weren't interested in riding this time.
This is the Hogle Zoo's newest exhibit - the African Savannah.  It is still partly under construction, but they have the lions out on display.  There are two male lions and two female lions and they rotate which ones are on display to the public until they can introduce them to each other and have them all together.  Today the males were out for us to see.
It was pretty cool seeing them up this close.
They just reopened the train ride after making some changes with the new zoo layout.
