Today I decided to do my parents a favor and take them to the San Francisco Zoo. I know they like animals and thought that they might have a fun time. We saw so many interesting and fun animals... be prepared for a lot of photos. And my mom might post even more photos on her own blog because there are just so many to share.
Boy it sure is humid in this Amazon rain forest. I'm having a hard time seeing that creepy crocodile.

We got to do something extra special - ride on a real miniture choo-choo!! It was a highlight of the day for everyone.

Here we are patiently waiting our turn. Can't wait for the choo-choo!

Ah, hello kitty cat. Finally a cat around here that I can pet. And she makes a comfy seat too.

Boy, touring around this zoo really makes a kid work up an appetite. What do you have for a snack? Well animal crackers of course.

Daddy, look quick - over there you'll see something very cool...

GIRAFFES! There is a whole herd of them.

Look. This one took a break from his lunch to say hello. Maybe he's got an eye on my animal crackers. Sorry, buddy. The sign says not to feed you.

Ooooh! Grizzly bears! This one is taking a bath just like I do. It looks like he doesn't like to let his mom trim his fingernails either.

Ah, and the king of the jungle. He stood here to pose just for us. I let out a fierce ROAR to let him know that I said "Happy St. Patricks Day!" I didn't see that he was wearing green, but I wasn't about to pinch him. He has green plants in his habitat so I guess that counts.
