Roo At The Zoo-- Take Two :)

Monday, August 31, 2009

Abby and I met our friend Lisa and her two kiddos Truitt and Meredith at the Dallas Zoo a couple of weeks ago. We hadn't been there before, and I thought it was a great trip! Abby was super excited to see the giraffes, but ever since her zoo trip, she's talked about the gorillas. A lot! That one gorilla (which you'll see in a minute) left a long-lasting impression!

Here's Abby before going into the zoo. She loves elephants!
The gorilla came over to the glass once he spotted spectators. It was amazing to see this creature so closely! He definitely loved putting on a show!
Love this one. Abby kept saying "hi" to him. Now, had the glass not been there, I think it would've been a whole different story!
Meredith giving the gorilla a High Five!

Abby watching a very large tortise walk toward her. (Side note: she insisted on bringing along her $1 Target Bin hat for some reason! However, it was quite useful once the sun started beating down on us!)
Friends.
The giraffes! Finally! Abby was excited!
This cracked me up. Who cares about looking at snakes and spiders when you can watch a zoo keeper clean out a pond?! :)

Abby's new friend, Mr. Elephant.
All the kids.
Me and Roo at the Zoo! :)
And a great time was had by all! :)
