NC Zoo

We took a family day trip to the NC Zoo yesterday.  It was a great summer day to go...it wasn't very crowded and the weather wasn't too hot, thank goodness!  We got to see most of the animals there, but there were a few that were hiding like the rhinos and chimps.  Brayden had a great time though.  His favorite part was the dinsoaur exhibit that had animatronic dinos that moved and made sounds.  He even correctly named a few of them to us like the Triceratops and T-Rex, which I was kind of impressed with!  I enjoyed seeing all the animals, but my favorite was probably the gorillas.  They were cooling off in the shade, one right against the glass  divider where we looked at them.  The elephants were also very close to their viewing area too, which was cool to see them so close up.  Greg enjoyed the animals too, but his most memorable part was seeing a woman at the gorilla exhibit getting pooped on by a bird in the trees...Gross!!  : )  Connor went with us too and did a great job of mostly sleeping in the stroller.  He did get out for a few pictures though!
