We headed to the zoo in Portland on Dec. 23rd. It was cold, but not nearly as cold as last year. Brr! With everyone bundled up we arrived at 3pm. We spent several hours looking at the animals. It sprinkled on us a little bit, but nothing too bad. We had some great & close encounters with the Jaguar, Lion, and Baboon. Most of the rest of the animals were hiding, or indoors, where the adults in our party could spot them, but little eyes could not see or distinguish the animals from their surroundings. The kids particularly loved the Jaguar, and in the picture below you can even see Lincoln's little hands reaching out to pet the kitty. ;)
Once it got dark we headed for the Zoo Lights Train, and waited about 45min to board. Unfortunately, Lincoln had a seizure minutes before it was our turn & fell asleep, so he ended up sleeping the entire train ride. Oh well. It happens. June enjoyed the ride, despite being exhausted from the long cold napless day. It was a lot of fun & everyone had a good time. Once we left, she was fast asleep in the car before we even got out of the parking lot. Lol!
