Another Trip to the Zoo

Saturday turned into a rain festival, so we did not stay too much longer at the Cougar Mountain Zoo. We decided that if it was a nice day on Wednesday we would go to the Woodland Park Zoo in Seattle. Wednesday turned out to be beautiful!!  Lon and Ben get along very well. 

Walking along the path to see the animals

Watching the Jaguar pace the enclosure.

The toucan! He was pretty cool looking

Watching the penguins swim underwater

The Los Amigos boat. Lon did not want to leave the boat, and as soon as we did leave he wanted to come back and play some more on the boat.

The new Meerkats. They are new the Seattle.  They were pretty interesting to watch.  I could have stayed there longer but it was getting crowded

Yes, that is a huge bear! He does look closer than he really is.  Scary BIG bear!
The boys were fascinated

 The River Otters. So much fun to watch the two of them swim and play.  They looked like they were having so much fun!

We got a snack, and Popsicles.  Then watched the flamingos.  Saw a picture of the brine shrimp they eat!. They are surprisingly not pink. If they are, the photo was very much washed out.

The boys waiting outside the bug house. Lon did not like the bug house. He had to leave, and Ben came with him.  After that, we had to get home. It was getting late in the afternoon. We still had homework to do!
