Those Crazy Animals!

After we dropped Sarah off at the Greensboro airport, we met up with the Saunders at the N.C. Zoo in Asheboro. We started out in North America and saw Willy the Polar Bear, the Sea Lions, and an Arctic Fox. We also saw some snakes but the only person interested in that was Claire. She doesn't know how yucky they are yet. We also checked out the Kid's Zone, where they keep the Galapagos Turtles.
The next thing was the playground that had giant bugs and plants (not real of course). We let them burn off some energy so they would have the patience to ride in their strollers for a while.
Next was the Prarie where we saw Bison and Elk. They were all being a little lazy so I didn't get great pictures.
Then we moved on to the Bird Aviary where we saw frogs and all kinds of birds. Sorry I don't have the names of everything. After that we saw a Meerkat, Baboons, Elephants, Ostrich, Zebra, Giraffe and Chimps.
I think the Elephants were Claire's favorite but I personally loved the Giraffes. Check out the slideshow at the top and get a glimpse of what we saw without all the walking! Check back for Charleston pictures next week.
