St Louis Zoo

We live by such a cool zoo. The best part of this zoo is the fact that it's FREE! The girls and I went with Greg's Mom a few weeks ago and I was so impressed that we went back again on Saturday with Greg.

We first went to pet the Stingrays. Greg and I had the most fun with this. Brinley was a little scared to touch and Julianne just wanted to look at them.









The next exhibit we went to was the Hippo's! It's by far my favorite feature at this zoo. I've never seen Hippo's so close in my life! They are HUGE!








And what would a zoo be without an Elephant?
The Chimp exhibit is pretty fun too. They come right up to the glass!




Julianne wasn't so sure she liked that!
This little guy just wanted to take a nap.
They even had bunny's! A little more up Julianne's alley.
We went over to see the Lion's and were so sad because we couldn't see them anywhere. Then all the sudden we looked in the tree and saw the mama! It was so neat!
She just had a baby cub a few weeks ago. The Daddy and the baby were inside so we didn't get to see them, but hopefully next time!
