The Zoo,  The Zoo,  The Zoo!

 Love going to the Zoo,  Jason wanted to take Erin so I tagged along.

 This year the Hogle Zoo has an animated dinosaur exhibit.  So of course we stopped to take pictures.

 We also took the same picture of Jason by the Lion water fountain that we took when he was little. (I think I need to find the picture when he was little and post a side by side.)

 When we got to the Lions,  the Guide told us that the cement they are laying on is heated so on cold days they like to lay there.  This picture makes it look like we were inside the closure with them,  but the window was really, really clean.

 This is the oldest Elephant at the Zoo,  we were told that she has arthritis,  and the Trainers have her do stretches a couple times during the day, to help with her stiffness.  She was more than happy to do them as long as she got a treat from the trainer.

 And of course the Gorilla was asleep in his Hammock. That or just ignoring all of us!

 This little Baby Orangutan was adorable,  and having way to much Fun playing with all the lids.

 The Bears looked like they were shedding their winter coat.  This was the only good picture I could get because they were constantly chasing each other.

 I love the new Tiger Habitat,  much better than when they were in cages.

 But of course the Best part of the Zoo was all the Dinosaurs.

 This Dino behind Erin and Jason Sprayed water on you.  Erin kept saying that Jason was getting her wet!

 Erin Loved the Zoo,  But who wouldn't when you get to ride in a chair the whole time.

A Big Thanks to Jason for Pushing Erin Up & Down & Up & Down all those HILLS!  Can't wait to go again,  but maybe not on a rainy day.
