This week Avery’s Mama and Papa both had vacation days, so they decided to take her to the Woodland Park Zoo… two days in a row!
DAY 1:
Avery played with penguins, rode a fox, slipped past a sleeping tiger, tamed a dragon, communed with orangutans, and giggled at Asian otters:
DAY 2:
Avery climbed a tree, had a brush with bears, high-fived an American otter, watched wolves play, napped with wallaroos, fed a budgie, and had lots of fun with Mama & Papa:

It turns out that going to the Zoo on days that threaten rain is an excellent choice; the place was practically deserted, and most of the animals were out in full view!
