2nd Annual Zoo Day 2014

How have I missed a whole month of blog posts?

I'm going back to early summer for the 2nd Annual McNeill family trip to the zoo. This year, John, Andrea, and Ellie were with us.... and Allie too :)



It wasn't too hot and Camille and Ellie had lots of hands willing to push their strollers or carry them.






We had a GREAT time and got to see most of the animals. It was too hot for the polar bear, so we hated that we missed him, but had more excitement with the newly born monkeys! Two separate sets of monkey's had given birth within a week of our visit! The mama's kept them at a distance, but we got a few sneak peeks.

















My favorite was probably the brown bear. He was a bit old and slow, but we caught him right at feeding time, so we got some great glimpses of his snack time. If only the trainer had put that food in an easier to reach spot. I felt like it took 30 minutes for that bear to get up on the rock to get his meat and veggies. 










And of course Camille made sure to stop at some of the same photo op spots as last year. 





Hard to believe that the summer is coming to an end.... I have a lot of posts to catch up on!
