Hogle Zoo

On September 19, my friend, Kristy invited me, Devin, and Mackenzie to join her and her two sons, Apollo and Earnest, at the Hogle Zoo. We love getting out of the house, being with friends, and seeing animals so it was a win-win-win situation! We were there for a couple hours and the kids had a lot of fun! The new habitat, Rocky Shores, was open and it was out first time getting to see the polar bear, otters, seals, and sea lions.

 Kenzie standing in a bald eagle's nest (not real of course!)

 Peek-a-boo Devin in a log

Apollo in the log too

 There were 2 bald eagles just sitting there. Pretty cool.

Lunch time for the otters! 

 Yum!

Kenzie really enjoyed just watching the sea lion and one of the seals swim around and around.

The polar bear was also fun to watch, swimming the same thing over and over again.

Boo!

The whole time, Devin kept saying he wanted to see the tigers. He didn't really care about anything else. And then when we got to the tigers, he looked once real quick and then was done. Silly boy!

  The giraffes are always fun to see.

 This one cracked me up! What a face!

Before and after that face, this is what he was doing! Maybe he licked up something tasting not so good!

 Kenzie liked seeing the little monkeys!

Earnest, Kristy, and Apollo looking at the crocodile. He was just laying there with his mouth open.

 Devin and Mackenzie checking out the "kitty-cat."

 I love the swimming turtle!

 We even got to take a ride on the carousel.

Devin on the leopard

 Kenzie on the froggie

She was a little nervous sitting up there and wanted me to have a hand on her leg the entire time!

Earnest on a baboon (I think)

 Apollo on a giraffe

Elephants!!

 Time to eat!

Mommy and baby

Kenzie like the gorilla...and I love the way she says gorilla!

 Ah, the water ball thing is always fun!

 Pretty good picture of our reflections!
