free zoo day...


During the winter Hogle Zoo offers free zoo days once a month. Every month I plan on taking Josh. And every time I plan it, it snows or rains. So we were so happy to see warm weather in the forecast for this month's zoo day. Wouldn't you know it, I woke up feeling like crap - nasty head cold and cough. But being the wonderful mother that I am (can you hear the sarcasm in that?), I sacrificed to give Josh a fun outing.


I should have figured that I wasn't the only one to take advantage of free zoo day. Our adventure began by spending over 20 minutes to look for a parking spot. We met up with my mom. Josh was so excited especially for the train ride and carousel. It's all he talked about on the drive down. Imagine his disappointment when both were down for the day. Luckily the sight of the monkey house quickly changed his disposition.


Josh loved checking out all the animals. The favorites of this trip - snakes, monkeys and gorillas. I promised we'd go again soon so he could ride the train and carousel.
