A VISIT TO THE ZOO...

Today we took Charlotte, Jacob and Oliver to the zoo. We also met my Auntie Anne, cousin Deanna, her husband Sheldon their kids Sara, Addison and Sam and my other cousin Michael, his wife Alison and their son Myer. They are all here from Halifax for the weekend to celebrate my Grandma's 90th birthday. 

We descended on the zoo shortly after 9:30 and lasted until 1pm. Although we took Charlotte and Jacob to the zoo last summer they were much more into it this year than last. They were in awe of the merry go round at the front gate and loved seeing all the animals. They couldn't quite understand why they weren't allowed in the cages to touch them and kept asking us if they could pet them when we stopped at each new animal. 

Charlotte told us her favourite animal was the giraffe and Jacob said he liked the penguins. They both said they'd like to go back tomorrow! Although we won't be taking them back tomorrow we will definitely visit again soon!
