At the zoo!

Today we hung out at one of our favorite places: the zoo! We went to the petting zoo, where Bracha touches a sheep, a lamb, and a couple of goats. We saw kangaroos and Eliana tried to reach out and grab a beautiful blue bird in the Australian pavilion (that shared an enclosure with fruit bats...man those guys are BIG!) We also spent some time at the large playground near the petting zoo and you can check out the video below to watch the girls having fun on the swings. But our favorite part was, by far, the lemurs. They have a large, open space and while you're not supposed to touch them, you sure can get pretty close. In fact, they come right up to you. There's a picture below (a blurry one, it was the best I could get) of a lemur that hopped right on to the bend my mom and Bracha were sitting on! Enjoy the fun!
