Dallas Zoo

Talk about Texas Summer heat! We went to the zoo for the Target Zoofari days and it was HOT! I was extremely exhausted after our trip. Austin and Kayla had so much fun looking at all the animals. We saw two events up close: feeding the King Vultures and a trainer working with a chimpanzee. The kids loved the elephants and gorillas. They had a blast in the water so they were able too cool down.

Kayla looking for animals.

"Patrick" the gorilla.

This is a female gorilla and she was really cool. Here she is looking at Austin.


This is a close up of the female gorilla. I bent down and we looked at each other eye to eye and I took this picture. She actually seemed really lonely and sad. It kind of depressed me to see the animal this way. Just look at her face...


Austin and kayla...

Kayla playing in the water. She was all over the place.
