1. We went to the zoo on Tuesday because I was home with the kids.
2. Yup, to a zoo, in Chicago, in February.
3. It was EMPTY.
4. We walked around for 1.5 hours before I saw any other visitor -- everyone we saw was a zoo worker.
5. We went in the indoor exhibits, and PJ and Maggie were able to run around and do whatever they wanted.
6. Maggie was in her glory.
7. PJ would call me over to see an animal, sometimes knowing what it was, sometimes asking.
8. They tweeted along with the birds.
9. PJ made monkey noises in Tropic World.
10. They happily got back in the wagon to move on to the next animal.
11. They got to pet a kitty and a bunny.
12. They got to pretend to be veternarians and lemurs.
13. My friends, a random weekday in February?
14. Best day to go to the zoo.
Lincoln Park or Brookfield?
ReplyDeleteThat is so awesome! It was like a private z00- viewing for Y'all!!
ReplyDeleteI love going to the zoo, no matter what time of year. Too bad it's so far from us.
ReplyDeleteAwww I bet they had a blast! I think we are about to go to our zoo in a few weeks.
ReplyDeleteFun! I think it's time to go back...I don't think we've been in a few years.
