A day at the zoo

Yesterday we went to the London zoo. It was the first time for Jim and Evie and the first time for me during the summer (last time I went it was December or something).
Evie isn't used to facing forward in her stroller, so sometimes she gets a little frustrated that she can't see us. We held hands for a little while on our walk to the zoo.


We decided to make a pit stop/crawl break on Primrose Hill.


Evie attracted the attention of an 18 month old boy (not pictured). He thought it was funny to try to push Evie over. She seemed unfazed. Fortunately, he left.


Then the real fun started!


Trees always play a key role in any walk that we take.


After paying a small fortune to get into the zoo, we headed for the aquarium, which was the most interesting part, according to Evie.





She also was intrigued by the butterflies:


Things were getting a little dire, but then we found the elephant! (just ignore that sign behind me). That elephant made me car sick.


Shoulders are also always fun.

As are shoulders combined with otters. The otters were equally as interested in Evie.



At first I thought the lemurs were raccoons. They have deceptive tails.


Jim refused to pose as a chimp, so I had to go it alone.


Later he found his long lost brother.


It was a good day and the only way to end it was with a drink in a posh pub in Primrose Hill.
