Fun at the Zoo

I know it's kinda late posting these, but we went to the Zoo on Memorial Day. The weather was a little overcast but it was really nice because this made the animals all want to be out. In the past when we've gone, it seemed like the we always hit it when the animals were asleep and so we'd walk from place to place only seeing the scenery. Not very interesting. But this time was great! They even have a new sky-ride! If you've ever been to the zoo here, you'll know how it was built on the side of a mountain with lots of steep hills to push a stroller up! Well, that hasn't changed, but now you can also see lots when you take the ski lift...I mean sky-ride up and over the zoo! It's beautiful over looking the city, too! We had a fun time.

Enjoy some photos...

The giraffes are the greatest! They come right up to you!

This is in one of the fun kid playlands.

Here's a shot from the sky-ride!

The views are beautiful!

We're so excited to come back to Colorado Springs with KIDS! When we lived trhere before, we never went to the zoo even once. That seems so strange now.

Looks like you guys had a great time!

What a "zoo"tiful day. Ha-ha. That is such a fun zoo. We can't wait to go again when we come visit.
