Daniel started nodding off in the car on the way.  By the time we got in the gate, he was out.

This is Daniel sleeping through the elephants…

… and the giraffes.

He slept the first 45 minutes, but woke up at bottle time.  We went to a nice shady picnic area and Mama and Papa had the sandwiches and grapes Mama had packed.  Daniel had his usual.

Then he played with his feet a bit and looked around.

Then we hit the trail again. Daniel sucked on his thumb as he looked around.

He loved it when Papa picked him up to show him zebras, but he looked at people instead of animals.

Daniel spent his zoo time looking at people and plants.

When he rode on Papa’s shoulder for a while he talked with his hands in his mouth.

Here Daniel is not looking at the lemurs.

Maybe one of these days Daniel will realize the zoo is where they keep animals.
