Zoo Round 2 (same place, different child)

On May 20, I was able to go with Nile's kindergarten class to the zoo for his school field trip.  Originally this was scheduled for April, but it was 40 degrees and a rain/sleet/snow mix that day.  Not such a good zoo day...Monday was much better!

I was ready to chaperone my "small group" of children, so I was surprised when they said all I had to be responsible for was my own child!  I was even more surprised (and happy) when Nile said he didn't want to go around with any of his classmates, he wanted to go with "just you, Mom."

Like I was going to argue with that!

We had a blast exploring together, even though we had only about an hour of time to do so.  We even found some tiny tamarin monkeys we have never seen before.

On the train.  

Outside the zebra enclosure.

Measuring up against the falcons.  (despite his expression, he made sure we did this)

On a rock. :)
I guess now I just need to take Nate to the zoo and the trilogy will be complete. :)
