Trip to the Zoo

Madeline and I took a trip to the zoo this past week with some friends. This was Madeline's second trip to the zoo. We went last summer with our playgroup but I'm sure she doesn't remember it. Being a year older she definitely got more out of it this time. She enjoyed seeing the animals and going on a train ride and carousel.
I'm a little disappointed that I didn't take more/better pictures of the animals but I went crazy with the kangaroos so I did include a couple pics of them. The kangaroo exhibit is really neat and they don't have the kangaroos in a cage so they can come right up to you and hop on the sidewalk, which they did. They do keep their distance from you though, they won't come up to you. The kids got a kick of watching them hopping on the sidewalk.

This guy was really eyeballing us. I think we were in his way and he wanted us to move.

Another one hopping across the sidewalk. These guys really hop fast!

We were guessing it was almost feeding time or something because they kept going over by this gate and waiting.

Madeline took her first little train ride.

Looking happy as she gets off the train after her ride.

Madeline hanging out in our friend's stroller. She was getting tired at this point and getting sassy.

Bird feeding time. In this exhibit they let us get close and personal with the birds as they were being fed. Mads got a kick out of this.

Checking out a big bear statue.
