Sac Zoo

 A couple weeks ago Ava and I went to the Sacramento Zoo with my parents.  As soon as we walked in the zoo gate Ava wanted to ride the carousel.  That is really all she wanted to do.  We walked around and look at some of the animals first, but she kept talking about the carousel.  We ended up riding the carousel 2 times and both times she chose to ride on the panda.  When we were done she asked to ride it again, but I told her next time.  Ava quickly got over it when we rode the mini train.  We had a wonderful day and were all tired by the time we left.

I didn't realize flamingos kneel with their legs forword.  It looked weird.

This otter reminded me of Ava because it was sleeping sucking its tail just like Ava sucks her thumb.

This Orangatang used a cardboard box for protection from the sun.  It was quite active and took the cardboard where ever it went.  It was interesting.

Ava insisted Nonna be in this picture with her.

If you look hard enough you can see we are all in the picture.  Somehow we all managed to squeeze in one tiny train car.  Good thing it was a short ride.

We waited in line for over 30 minutes to feed the giraffe.  Ava was excited until we stepped onto the platform and we got close to the giraffe.  I'm not sure what scared her but she wouldn't feed the giraffe.  Nonna & I did.

A really tired girl after a long day.
