It was a beautiful day and the animals were all pretty active. There were several Orangutan's using the "O-line" which was really exciting to see. We also got to the Ape house just a little before feeding time, so we got to see them be very active!

Poor Timmy was very active too, as we only had a single stroller with us. As Tim said a million times during our visit, no matter which way you go, everything is up hill! Timmy was thoroughly exhausted by the time we left. He did play photographer for most of the day though and that kept him going. He took all of the pictures in the small mammal house. I was impressed at his patience, waiting for the animals to move around until he could get a picture of their face.
Later he kept taking pictures of the signage instead of the animals! When he finally explained why, it was so we could read the signs later... when I asked him why don't we just read them now he said, "Well, you haven't read a single one yet!" Poor Timmy, he should probably go back to the zoo with Baba next time, Daddy and I are not big sign readers!
The Elephants and the otters were big favorites, we watched each of them for awhile. Timmy was impressed with his own photography skills when he caught the image of the otter pushing off the glass!
We waited in line to go through the Panda house, all 3 panda's were awake and the baby was so cute!
Afterwards we went to Sweet Water for an early dinner and then we stopped to visit with the Dale's and Great Grandma at her house. The theme song for the day was definitely this beautiful song that Timmy composed for me and taught to Tyler a few weeks before Mother's Day (actually, during his eye-injury recovery). It was actually the household theme song for probably a good 6 weeks. Best mother's day gift ever!
