I have not been to the zoo in years and this summer I went not only once but twice. Once with my cousin JJ and her family and then again a week later with my mom and Camille. Both times I had a great time. Mainly for the family time but also because the zoo has had a lot of babies recently. They have two baby elephants, a baby tiger cub, a baby orangutan, and a baby penguin. The baby elephants were so cute. They were so young, they were learning how to eat and take a drink of water. The eating was comical because she just couldn't seem to get the food from her trunk to her mouth. Then when it was time to go inside, she had trouble getting up an embankment. She tried with all of her might. Then her mom came over and took her trunk and gave her the little nudge she needed. It was oh so cute.
