Let the cat out of the bag

We met up with the cousins for a day at the zoo. For a special treat we let them ride on the very slow carosel. Felix's first ride. I'm not sure what he thought about it, but he held still, so that is good.

Laura called and told us her boys were wearing their "thumbs up!" t-shirts, so we sported ours too. You may think Lydia wasn't having a good time, but we had told them to be sad for their "jail" picture. Very convincing, isn't she?

On our way to smell, oh, I mean see the penguins.

And below, this female lion was sleeping in the sun until Gabe had an accident and started crying. She instantly perked up and walked over. When she saw the kids (tasty little morsels) she started getting very agitated. Anyway, view for yourself. I felt bad for her.

As you can see, the kids thought is was hilarious.
