Sac Zoo





We spent our MLK holiday tripping around Sac. We started the day going to mass since we missed it yesterday. This was followed by Starbucks and a trip to the Sac Zoo. There was a light rain and the zoo was practically empty. Michael has been talking about the monkeys for the past week so he was very excited to go to the zoo. Michael' s favorites were the chimps and gibbons. The tigers were pretty frisky but their enclosure was completely covered by wire so so replays of the SF zoo incident...Michael was very interested in the animals and did a lot of walking around. He loved the rain - must be the Oregonian in him! We finished up at the parrots and toucans. Of course, we couldn't leave without a trip to the gift shop for a tiger. We also stopped by for a photo before we left - the photo says it all. Later we all went over for dinner at the local malt shop - Burr's Fountain - a Sacramento institution. Michael wasn't too thrilled about the high chair so he sat in the booster seat for the first time!
