The Zoo

On Monday, Grandma, Austin, and Mommy went to the zoo. We had quite a day! We started by going to The River's Edge to look at hippos, elephants, and fish. Austin was amazed by the elephants, but LOVED looking at the fish in the hippo habitat!



Then we walked over to see the bears and penguins. The zoo has a great penguin habitat inside. Austin made a face as we walked in because it was SO cold! But once he saw the penguins he loved them. At first he didn't like the sounds they were making because there was one that was VERY loud! But he loved to watch them swim!



Austin also loved looking at the monkeys. We were lucky to see the chimps out and about. They were sleeping and then got up to walk around. There also was a little monkey in the primate house that got face to face with Austin. They both stared at each other for a few minutes before he climbed away!



We had a great day at the zoo! Austin was so worn out that he fell asleep before we even left the parking lot!
