Do the Zoo

LET'S GO!: Today we decided to make our learn-by-doing, let's get moving activity a trip to the Woodland Park Zoo.

The forecast was for a cloudy and cool a.m. followed by better weather later. That was a good enough reason for us to get out and get in it. Above, Annabelle tortoise gets the party started. ;)
As usual, touring the zoo made me feel both good and awful. I always feel particularly bad seeing the primates boxed off and caged up. That said, I'm glad endangered species are being protected, of course.
For a $5 donation, the kids got to feed the penguins 4 fish. The $5 went 'up in smoke' in about 1-second, but it's worth it to help support the zoo.
It wasn't very warm today, so many of the animals weren't active, but we still hand a grand time. I'll let the photos do the talking.
