More Zoo Pictures

Here the kids are waiting for the train to start.  Nora's forehead bandaid is covering an itchy bug bite.    Aaron always enjoys being the keeper of the map.  He yelled "go faster" and the young engineer turned around and grinned and said "It doesn't go any faster."

 Brushing the goats.  Nora always opts to skip this part, waiting outside the fence.  I really thought she might try it this time but she didn't.

And, finally, the carousel.  The zoo pass includes rides on the carousel and train, and there were five carousel rides yesterday.  For most of the time, the grands were the only riders.

When we went earlier in the summer it was hot and crowded, but still a good time.  This time it got hot as the afternoon went on, but it definitely wasn't crowded.  Usually when we finish our adventures there are good-natured complaints about the long walk through the parking lot, but this time we were right at the bottom of the escalator.  Nice end.
