The San Diego Zoo

We started with the elephants.



Here we are watching them feed the elephants. It was amazing. The trainer would put food in his trunk like cantaloupe and cucumbers. The elephant kept wanting the trainer to blow in his trunk. They seemed so comfortable with each other even though the elephant was so huge and the trainer was tiny.


I like this shot of the Jo's hat and her little belly.


Baylub walked pretty much the whole day holding his map of the zoo. He kept it spread open in front of him all day, periodically inspecting where we should go. It was really cute.




Pretending to be seals popping up through the ice.



Adam's and Baylub's favorite was hands down the polar bears. We stopped and watched them wrestle underwater for about fifteen minutes.


Sleepy lion.



Excited about the giraffes.



After a long day, we took a break in this shaded reptile enclosure and let the kids run around while we rested our piggies. The kept running back and forth yelling, "Look at this snake!" or "Look at this one!"




Our only picture of both kids looking and smiling at the camera.



We had to line up to see the pandas and stay really quiet while we were in their enclosure.




Waiting for the sea lion show to start.



This was my favorite part of the zoo.


It was Jo's too. She kept grunting and talking while we watched and dancing with the music.




What a fun day!
