The Hogle Zoo

6.25.2011

We decided to brave the heat and visit the zoo after some of Eric's meetings at the University of Utah. We got there a little bit later than we had planned, but we still had a great time.



Don't you just love this cute little hat on her? We had to find her a hat the night before so she wouldn't fry.


The Negus's came with us, even though Jake had cracked his head open the night before. Megan and Taylor were gone at camps, so Jake and Lauren wanted something to do.

The carousel was probably Hallie's favorite part. She picked out the polar bear long before we even got in line.





After lunch, Hallie was a little bit squished in the wagon.


The gorillas were hanging out in the shade, but we had a good view of them.





The elephants are what Hallie had talked and talked about before we ever got there. A few months ago, we were given a handout to go see the new baby elephant. Hallie has since hauled it around everywhere, and has talked about baby Zuri the elephant. So she was thrilled to actually see her.





They have a big Zoo-rassic park thing going on right now too. So they have all of these cool animatronic dinosaurs throughout the zoo. They were fun to see, even if the T-Rex made Hallie nervous.


It was a long, hot day, and this little girl was worn out completely. She was asleep before we even made it out of the zoo.


I guess that means she had a good time though right?
