Fort Worth Zoo

Since we weren't able to go to the zoo yesterday, we decided, along with Mimi, Randi, Chris & Mason, to try again today. Although the zoo was still a popular attraction today (everyone's on spring break!), we could at least park on the right side of the road! This was Abigail's second time to the FW Zoo, and the second zoo this month (we took her to the FW Zoo when she was 6 months old and she visited the Caldwell Zoo in Tyler last week with cousin Nicholas)! Last time we went, she learned a new word (bird), and I love all things educational. Plus, it was another great day to be outside, although chillier than yesterday.

It took us about 3 hours, but we were able to see most everything the zoo had to offer, including the long line for the penguins! It was a great day to see animals and get some exercise.

Abigail checking out the flamingos.




Abigail preferred to sit side-saddle on the lizard.


While Mason preferred to sprawl out on it!


He loved the reptile!


Good thing this penguin isn't out - Abigail only comes up to its wing!


Lazy kangaroos

Mason was enthralled by the tigers.



Looking down at the Dik-Dik hiding in the bamboo.


Everywhere we turned, I saw a shoe on a railing! After about the 4th one, I decided to take a picture. Those things can get lost here! As a matter of fact, Abigail lost one of her shoes at the crocodile exhibit and I had to retrace my steps to find it!


This monkey was going crazy on the bars. He looked like a gymnast!

Uncle Robby gave Mason a lift at the end of the day.

I love the shoe pic...little things that make impressions.
