Dallas Zoo

I haven't been to the Dallas Zoo in a bazillion years (only a slight exaggeration).  My only real memory of the zoo is when one of the gorillas escaped from his enclosure (just looked it up...it was in 2004...where does time go???) and injured a few people.  Well, it was time to find some new places to take the girls so we headed out.  The drive wasn't bad and the girls LOVE the giant giraffe statue at the entrance. 
We rode the carousel 6 times...I never thought I got motion sick, but after riding backwards (to get pictures of course!) on a fairly fast carousel, I'm having second thoughts.

At the elephant fountain (wishing it would turn on)


Sitting on the baby elephant

Feeding the giraffe a graham cracker (not really, but it looked the same as one)

They are so gentle

Awesome to be so close to such a beautiful animal

Admiring the flowers

Camryn was SO excited to ride the monorail
