Birthday trip to the zoo

For her birthday we took a trip to the zoo with friends. Here they are looking for Polar Bears.

Onward with Marguerite

As all birthdays should, this one included cupcakes.

Pony ride! She loved this (and still talks about it.)

Yet another zoo trip

Petting a sweet goat

...and a cow statue.

Peacock!

I think the peacock's display was suppose to frighten predators. It had the opposite effect on GK. Note Mommy's restraining grip.

Another trip to the zoo, part 1

A winter trip to the zoo - the stroller was quickly dismissed as unnecessary by GK.

Watching penguins

GK finds a good spot for Gorilla watching.

She looooved her gorilla.

GK points out an orangutan. Another orangutan can be seen on the scaffold above Chris' head.

Zoo! part 2

Watching the penguins

Quacking at the ducks - of all the animals in the zoo the ducks and chickens were the most exciting.

A sign warns that this bear has a bad habit of begging and asks visitors to not encourage him by tossing him food. He was putting on quite a show.

The day ends with a nap with now two monkeys.
