The zoo

This morning we went to the Henry Doorly Zoo - boy did we have fun! It was hot, but we were there early so the animals were still frisky. Francesca and Mateo especially loved the peacocks and the gorillas. Mateo said some really funny things ... it was just a great morning!


Hello peacocks!

Cesca was really into the gorilla exhibit - she kept shouting!

"AH! Look at me... I have a big belly!" Mateo made fun of the penguins.
