So the day after the fair we woke up early for the zoo. We had to be there at the gate at 10, and you just never know what Atlanta traffic will be like. This was a field trip for Kayla's class. Both girls worked extra hard to get all of their school work done in advance so that we didn't have to worry about it for Friday. Brooke has never been to the zoo (that she would remember) and we have been wanting to take her. The group school discount provided a great excuse for us to make a family adventure out of it.
Some of the sweet girls in Kayla's class that went on the field trip.
Of course they remembered the parakeets.
A lot of the animals that usually lurk in the background were out and about today. This elephant kept walking out of the building, rang a bell, and returned into the building. The girls chased him back and forth checking out the two viewing areas.
It's usually hard to see the tiger, pandas, and lions up so close.
Kayla is researching pandas for a report so she loved watching these guys. This is a mama and her cub snuggling.
This adorable little monkey got tired of swinging with it's mama so it decided to hang off of the hammock and swing. It was really neat to watch the mama interact with her baby.
Another fun fall day, but this wasn't the end of our weekend. One more adventure awaited us on Saturday.
