Lions, Gorillas and Giraffes. Oh My!

Francis, Zoe and I spent the afternoon at the Santa Barbara Zoo. I usually feel depressed after going to zoo's but it was actually really fun this time around with Zoe. I can't wait until she is old enough to get excited to see the animals...and for the train ride!

Here we are taking the train around the zoo. We weren't sure if it was going to make it back - I think it was on its last leg.



The elephants had one of the best mountain views and the lions were asleep the entire time we were there (they sleep up to 20 hours a day!)

Zoe was wiped out after a couple of hours and she happily passed out in her stroller.

I have a feeling we'll be visiting the zoo often - especially now that we have an annual family pass (thanks Mimene and Fanfan).
