Day at the Zoo!

We went to the zoo a couple of weeks ago with our friends Aurelia, Emil, and baby Remy, and we had some of the best viewings. All of the animals were awake and moving around, even the koala which sleeps 23 hours a day, and I don't think I've ever seen it awake before. There was a porcupine in the same area as the koala, and whenever I talk about the koala Wesley says "porcupine walking in the leaves." We got to see the kangaroos jumping around, which also are usually sleeping, and Wesley thought that was a lot of fun. We also went on a little boat ride, which we've never done before, and a train ride. You can see the pictures of all of us on the train. Our other exciting sighting, was that we saw Jack Hannah! He and his family sat right in front of us on the train. I got a pretty good picture of him, and it just looked like I was taking a picture of Aurelia. :) Aurelia and I were very excited about seeing him, but of course the boys didn't care. They loved seeing all of the animals, and had fun climbing on the animal sculptures too. Oh yes, and petting the goats "very gently" in the petting zoo area. I kept telling Wesley to pet them very gently, so now whenever we talk about it he has to add "very gently." And he did a very good job of being gentle with them, even though he kept trying to ride them. :) It was a very exciting and fun day at the zoo!
