Another trip to the zoo!!

We made another trip to the zoo, this time with Sawyer and his little friends from his pre-school group.  It makes me sad to think that this is my last little kid that I get to take to the zoo with his little friends!  It was a good day.  Sawyer's favorite animal is the Okapi.  Since it is winter here, the Okapi's barn was open so they were inside where we could not see them.  Sawyer was so sad. but because he is a problem solver, when we saw a worker he asked where the Okapi were.  I did not even know he knew who the workers were.  Thats Sawyer for you.  Anyhow, the worker was so impressed with this little boy, that he called the okapi barn and they urged them out and we went back and looked at them.  What a crazy, but determined little boy!

While we were at the zoo, we heard this very loud animal sound, we thought that it was a recording playing on the speakers becuase it lasted so long and was so loud.  We could here it all through the whole zoo.  Well, it was no recording, it was these monkeys making the sound.  They are the loudest creature and it was amazing to watch.  They filled their throats up into a bubble and then opened up and wailed.  Very cool!!
