Mom wasn't very smart and didn't pay any attention to the weather forecast before we left for Virginia. We did the indoor museum on the nice day and the zoo on the rainiest. Oh well. Patrick and Elizabeth still had a blast and really didn't complain at all about the rain. Elizabeth spent a lot of time in the stroller....what a trooper, as she was on the front lines absorbing the rain for Pat and Mom.
A monkey man at home with his monkey peeps. There were all these cool bronze chimpanzee statues that the kids loved climbing on. Would have gotten' more pictures but I was paranoid with the expensive camera and the rain.
Patrick and Elizabeth are watching the orangutans play and investigate milk crates coated in maple syrup. Below you will see a few of the animal highlights from the zoo.
Luke the Lion....of course
Tiger
Giant, old tortoise
This is a mama Gorilla. I couldn't get a good picture, but she has a two month old baby (super cute) asleep on her.
And Mom's favorite....Happy the Hippo.
It was a fun day for the three of us, but we were happy to get into dry cloths and a warm car at the end of the day. We can't wait to bring Daddy back there.
