Fun at Fort Worth Zoo

Fort Worth Zoo is one of the top four or five zoo's in the country, so of course, when we were in Texas, we went. Unfortunately, I awoke that morning feeling quite poorly, with a cold. But, how could I miss Amelia's first trip to the zoo? So I got up and went anyway. The temperatures that day were above 100 degrees, which made me feel worse.

Although I didn't see everything there was to see, since I found a quiet place and waited there with my sister-in-law until everybody was ready to go home, it was still a good place to go. Luckily for me, Amelia had lots of family around her to keep her company and show her all of the animals, as well as take lots of photo's so I didn't completely miss out on the fun.

I love the monkey in the photo above, it's so colourful.
Below, mum and Amelia look at the animals.

Amelia spent time with all of her grandparents, here she is on grandpa's shoulders.

What does the Orangutan have under his nose?

I love this photo of my mum and Amelia, reminds me of our good times together.

Everybody went into the avery to feed the birds, they eat seed from the lollipop stick. Amelia was pretty cautious and didn't get too close.

Daddy kept Amelia cool by pouring his water over her head, she looks like she enjoyed that. I bet it felt great!

Zebra's are so cool!

Here's all the cousins together by the elephant's home.

What a cute bunch they are! I really miss them all.

Here's Matthew, Amelia, grandad and nana all together.

I love the zoo, but next time I hope it's 75 degrees and I'm not sick!
