Today we all went to one of our favorite place, the Ft. Worth Zoo. It was a perfect day to go. Lots of interesting things happened there. First, we were in the house with the gorillas, monkeys and chimpanzees. They have a glass window where kids can climb right up to the chimps. Hope climbed up there, (picture #2) and a baby chimp would swing on a rope, right to the window, and push off the window with his feet. Hope thought this was hilarious! She was just cackling. It seemed the harder she laughed, the harder he would thump against the window, right at her face! Then, we saw the hippos, and they moved for the first time ever (that I have seen, anyway!) One came up out of the water and made a loud roaring kind of noise. John about jumped out of his skin! That made me laugh, but seeing John scared made Hope very scared. She was a little uneasy about big animals for a while after that. We would go to the lion and tiger exhibits and she would say "No! I don't like that!" She calmed down after a while and enjoyed the rest of the day. At the end of the day, we asked her what her favorite animals were. She said "the Kangawoo and the horsie." The Merry Go Round horsie. We could have done that at the mall!
