In early December Brett and I made another trip to the zoo. The weather was too nice to be indoors and we had so much fun on our last trip. The gibbons are always a hit at the zoo and the young one was having fun swinging while the parents watched from the ground.
A quick video of the penguins swimming right in front of us.
Brett had never taken the buggy ride and since we were there early we hopped right on. The Marabou storks were walking around and kept stopping in front of the buggy so we were stuck there for a few minutes.
A type of gazelle in the elephant area.
That was one big fat lazy gator. I’m sure he’s popular with kids.
The mallard thought this manatee was just a big floating pillow.

The zoo was decorated for the holidays. This certainly said “Florida Christmas”.
The big critters were out playing.
I think I could fall asleep watching these giant tortoises eat their breakfast. It must take them all day.
