There's not much to this post but we had a particularly lovely day out to the Dublin Zoo (last weekend) and I wanted to share some photos. We haven't been to the Zoo for over a year so we knew it was time to take Norah back (plus we had free tickets, expiring this month). :)
We live in Dun Laoghaire, literally at the bus stop that is the starting point for the route, and the Dublin Zoo is the very last stop. So, out our doorstep and after one hour, fifteen minutes on the bus, we walked into the Dublin Zoo. Couldn't get any better (unless the zoo was NOT one hour, fifteen minutes away). :)
We didn't take the buggy so we could sit on the top level of the bus. This is Norah's favorite.
I won't bore you with captions as zoos are pretty much zoos, unless say, you're at the Point Defiance Zoo in Tacoma which is amazing. ;) Actually I've never been there but, rumor has it.
I loved the hippos' feet. I could just picture her, so exhausted she collapsed, legs still under her. Hurrrrumfffhhh..
She'd open her eyes everytime she exhaled, which was only every minute or so.
We watched this family of gorillas for over half an hour (and I would've stayed much longer but Norah moved on).
LOOK at his muscles!! And to think they're vegetarians. Amazing creatures.
Yes, those are his... yes. He's not sitting on a bean-bag chair. (so maybe it's the levels of testosterone that make them so freakishly ripped?!)
