a day at the zoo

i go to the honolulu zoo once a year with preschool. i love it. it is a long, hot, tiring day with the kids but so fun and the only time i go to the zoo. and it's free for me which is a bonus.

i only took my phone b/c it is too hard to keep track of my camera and have hands free for "runnners"! but the pictures didn't turn out too bad. the only thing is there is no zoom so you can't get very close.

lemurs

rhino, zebras and my favorites the giraffes

and the best part, the bus ride home! it is so funny, about 5 min. in and they all start dropping.

there are funny little things that happen like laying on each other and smooshing their faces against windows but they had a great day!
bonus for the day was seeing nellie at the zoo. we were looking for each other all day knowing that the other was there. i was happy when i spotted her eating lunch with her friends and we ran for big hugs! so glad i found her!
