Day at the Zoo -







We took "Auntie Chrissy" to the zoo as part of her graduation present. We were so thrilled to spend the day with her and together at the Turtle Back Zoo. The zoo is made especially for children and has lots of fun exhibits for them. Alessandro saw penguins, bald eagles, black bears, kangaroos, monkeys and peacocks. He also got up close and personal with goats, pigs, rabbits, cows and horses at the petting zoo (David was a little nervous but all the livestock was properly inoculated), however ADL did get a little nervous about the pony ride and decided to put of riding "Shrek" the bucking bronco for another trip. Another big hit was the little antique train we rode on - which was really neat, but entertaining because Alessandro kept calling it Thomas - which makes sense since that is his life right now. So much fun - we can not wait to get back to the zoo - XOXO
