Anyway, we had such a good time at the zoo. We went through Steller Cove first and Skye spent some time bonding with one of the Sea Lions. It was swimming in a big circle and every time it came up to the surface it would swim up the window right in front of her. We also found a very clever little letterbox somewhere in Steller Cove! Next we made our way over to the elephants for the festivities. Skye got a pair of elephant ears to wear, we signed Packy's birthday card, and we saw an exhibit of Rama's paintings. We admired the fancy birthday cake and had some banana cake before moving on.
The primate area is being remodeled so we didn't get to see very many monkeys, but Sierra has decided to transfer her affections to penguins so it wasn't too much of a disappointment. We saw penguins, of course! We decided to finish up in Africa where we found another letterbox that was so cleverly concealed that we felt pretty smart for finding it! By this time we were hot and tired so we hopped MAX and Trimet home for a late lunch and a nap. We hope you have all had some adventures recently!
We lo
ve you!

Man do I miss the zoo. We went in November to the Woodland Park Zoo in Seattle, but it's just not the same. Not that the Portland Zoo is the same as it was.... man that makes no sense.
Anyway, what a beautiful day! It's been the same way here with the weather. Although I think the cold is now a little warmer, and it hasn't snowed in about a week.
I don't think I told you, but Grams was in Spokane at the hospital all week. She had a quad bypass on Tuesday, and is going home tomorrow! Mom has been up there and we were able to go for a few days.
Not much else new here, we're a pretty boring people.
Love ya lots!
Any zoo is a blast!!! But it sure can wear a body out.
