Zoo Adventure

It is Northwestern's spring break, so we have enjoyed a lot of time together as a family. On Wednesday, we went to the free zoo that is about 15 min. from our house. I think I have mentioned this zoo before. We love going, especially because it's free. It's also a great option in the winter because they have a way to view many of their animals from the inside.

The monkey is kinda blurry in this picture. He was posed perfectly, he and Callie just staring at each other. Of course, our camera flash was not too quick and by the time the picture took, he was on the move again.

The monkeys were a big hit! We watched them for a little while.


I kinda felt sorry for the giraffes. They looked so bored. They are able to go outside whenever they want. That would be awful if they were confined to just that little space.

All in all we had a great time at the zoo. After that, we headed to lunch at the Black Forest Inn, a great little German restaurant in downtown Minneapolis.
