We had a free Saturday and decided to go on a zoo trip as a family. We haven't been all together since Christmas time. As soon as we got there it started pouring rain! We weren't prepared with good
raingear (sad for a northwest family, eh?) so we purchased a couple umbrellas. Wouldn't you know the rain subsided 10 minutes later! I was happy to finally have a good umbrella though - our purchase didn't go to waste. It's the perfect 'waiting at the bus stop in the rain' umbrella.
It seems like when the weather is not so fabulous, the animals are always more interesting and active. This was certainly true today!
This was the most active we'd ever seen these black bears - it was fun!
The new lion exhibit was really cool!
A cute little something or other. (o: Muskrat? Something furry and cute.
By far, the highlight of the day was watching the cougar. I will try to get the video up later that I took. One of the cougars climbed up a tree and sat down - on it's rear end - on a branch of the tree. It's bum was hanging over one side and it was sitting up like a person looking around. It was such a weird thing to see! Everyone was laughing pretty hard.
