20 Minute Zoo

On May 10th, Emily's class was headed on their last field trip. Daddy took Emily so that she wouldn't miss out...
on the "20 minute zoo!"
The Orange County Zoo is very small, focusing on animals and plants native to the southwestern United States - a mom in the class deemed it the 20 minute zoo.
Daddy did a great job of taking pictures of Emily with her friend Emory (very much like Emily, talkative, smart, outgoing),
Ava (Emily talks about Ava all of the time but I have never heard Ava speak - only cry when separated from her mom. On the way to school Emily used to tell me that Ava wasn't going to cry that day, and she would check in on her when everyone was playing outside),
the javelinas,
the whole group,
and her teachers (Miss Carrie left, Miss Jackie right).
He even got a picture of Emily having her snack. Apparently she walked up after a lot of the other kids were sitting and eating and her teacher told her to pick a spot to eat... Emily went to an entirely different table.
She didn't miss out on the peacocks though...
nor the chance to chase them away with the rest of the kids.
We may be visiting this zoo a lot since the LA Zoo is a bit of a trek. But, Emily might have an issue with that - she wanted to see the elephants and tigers!

  2. Well, hey, at least she got to go. :)It's funny on what they report to you about their friends.

  3. Great photos, Daddy! Zoos are the best, especially when you go with friends. By the way, we are LA Zoo members so anytime you want to come out to see the tigers and elephants, let us know. We have some free passes...
