Put me in the ZOO!!

We had a great morning at the Atlanta Zoo!! Because some storms are supposed to come into the area this afternoon, we got to the zoo this morning right after they opened. We went with Nana, Granddad, Aunt Abigail, and our wonderful cousins, Ryan and Jessica, who were in town from South Carolina. We had a fun time.

The sun was not out and it was not too hot, and it really was perfect weather to be there. Just as we were leaving the raindrops started, so we made great time!!

Here are some highlights of our trip...

Will went into the petting zoo part of the zoo. He liked petting the goat and the pig.

















We rode the merry-go-round...Will had a FAST bird!!












We went and saw the Pandas...one was right against the glass, so Will was trying to touch him. The elephant put on a show when we walked by...he actually stood all 4 feet on that little stool and then sat down on it. Wow!! We also met an orangutan that could REALLY use a trip to the barber shop!!



















This was a gorilla who we found out was a bachelor...yeah, he will be for a while...women don't like men who cross their arms, poke out their bottom lip, and pout. Good luck, buddy!!










Aunt Abigail and Will got into a big bird's nest.












Beware of lions!!!













Will didn't get to ride a real giraffe, so this one made do!!













Will LOVES to be outside, and he had such a good time at the zoo!

















And the best picture of the day....taken right before we saw this sign...Haha!!
