LA Zoo

Today's plan of visiting the observatory was set aside when the sky remained in a state of thick smog until about 4pm. Instead we stopped by a game store for Oliver to purchase his Nintendo DS (secondhand) that he has been saving for, and then we visited the LA Zoo and had a fun time. The favourite part of the day was grooming the kid goats at the petting zoo. Oliver and Benedict enjoyed telling the keeper when and where they found scat, and asking them to sweep it up!




My favourite animal - prairie dogs!

Slothful boy in tree!

Upon seeing this sign next to the tortoises, we reminded Victoria about when she was two yrs old on a trip to the Dubbo Zoo. We had turned our backs momentarily to get Sophia a bottle, only to turn around to see Tori had climbed into the Galapagos tortoise enclosure and was sitting on the back of one having a lovely ride! We asked her to restrain herself on this zoo trip :)
