Stranded at the zoo... again.

I don't know why, but everytime we go to the zoo it rains. In fact, next time we need it to rain I think I will decide it is time for a visit to the the zoo. That should definitely do the trick. I got stuck with these 3 soaking wet animals:

They had a new animal at the Houston Zoo, a red panda, which they say is the "cutest animal in the world." I think mine are cuter.

So here are a few pictures from our exciting day.



It was really hot...


Austin's favorite animal was the komodo dragon. He read a book about them earlier in the week...

and then declared this dragon was the biggest he has ever seen. Because on our many tours of the Galapagos (or where ever the heck they live) they were definitely shorter than this one.

Little Miss Priss wasn't feeling it today...

until a turtle tried to bite her nose...

and until it started to rain. And then her day turned around.


I think perhaps this is my favorite photo from the day. No comment.
