Day at the Zoo

Last Wednesday was both mine and Justin's day off and Trichelle told us about Hogle Zoo's free day that day. So we headed down in the cold to check out the animals. Mya had never been and I was really excited to take her and see her reaction with the animals. We seriously had so much fun!
Mya loved the monkeys...but hated the gorillas! She loved one monkey that had a little baby on it's back and she still talks about it. But the gorillas and orangutans were sleeping right by on the other side of the glass at eye level to Mya and they freaked her out. They actually were kind of freaky laying there...just looked like a huge ball of hair...kind of like big foot. She loved the giraffes-probably because there was a baby giraffe there. But if you ask her, she'll tell you that they stunk! The entire day was fun and she loved most of the animals. There were a few, especially by the end, where she would just turn her head so she couldn't see them (the ones that were eye level to her and just on the other side of the glass).

After we were done, we stopped at the shop and let her pick out a couple of things. She picked out this really cute purple giraffe and a water bottle.

When we were all done, I asked Mya if she liked the animals and she said no. Then she looked at Trichelle and pulled this face, waved her hand in front of her face and said it's stinks! She was right, it did stink a lot, but I think she still had fun!

Oh, and if you're wanting to go, they'll still have one more free day for the winter. It's February 24th.
