Today Harper convinced me to go to the
Sedgwick County Zoo (in a rainstorm).
I’m so glad she did, because it was a beautiful zoo!
It often felt like we were in a forest rather than a zoo.
The animals were close and easy to see.
Harper liked playing with the gorillas
and with the Chinese crocodile. He followed her as we walked away, so we went back and he followed her that way too. No matter which way we went, he followed. He was definitely interacting with us.
I’ve never seen such a friendly crocodile!
We liked the brown Bear
and the spotted stingrays
and the okapi
the meerkats
and the stork.
The huge elephant habitat was closed for maintenance,
but we still got to see some elephants
and a rhinoceros.
In the Australia exhibit, the wallabys
hopped around freely with us.
We even fit in time to check out the playground.
We had a great time at the zoo!
