I wrote to the zoo to send me a pet...

We took Lincoln to the zoo yesterday. The weather was perfect--overcast, in the 70s, slight breeze. The zoo wasn't very crowded and we could easily see all the exhibits because the crowds were so thin. A lot of the animals were sleeping since we came during the middle of the afternoon, but there were a few wide-eyed and moving around. Lincoln's favorite thing he saw was a large misting fan. Much more entertaining than sleeping bears and lions.

We bought a family membership, so I'm looking forward to going back!
