Red, White and Blue and the Zoo!

We spent our 4th of July afternoon at the zoo today. The weather was perfect and it was not crowded. We saw a Red Panda which we had never seen before and some exotic birds. Howie and Emma-Caroline again rode the camels and we visited the butterfly garden. Of course we saw the elephants, zebra, penguins, black bears, and giraffe too. We ended a wonderful day by riding the carousel. It was an awesome 4th of July at the zoo!

Patriotic at the zoo!
