Zoo-mazium

Emerging from a bout with the flu, persistent haking cough aside, Tom (aka Papa) and I (aka Nonna) took the kids to the Woodland Park Zoo on a Spring-ish day. We saw the new digs for the penguins (huge but where were the penguins basking in the pleasure of their new and improved home?), visited the gorillas (who were, of course, just sitting there watching us), observed the Flamingos, and then had lunch. After lunch we headed straight to the Zoomazium with all sorts of activities for the kids. It's popular. Lots of little kids bouncing around. Andy touched a real cockroach (Ewhhhh), Sylvia spotted then carried around her "mingo" (Flamingo). Both rode the bronze baby elephant though Sylvia actually filled her cupped hands with water from the fountain and "fed" it to the elephant (little puddle at her feet). It was a fun, albeit, short trip to the Zoo but with the Spring weather it just felt time to go.
