Look at all the kids!

We woke up yesterday and thought -- "hey it's such a nice day, let's go to the zoo!" Upon arriving at the Oakland zoo it was apparent to us that everyone AND their mommas had had the same thought. You wouldn't believe how packed it was! I was pointing to animals to show Claire, and she would then point at the kids around us instead. She was right afterall, the kids were WAY more active and exciting to watch than the lazy, overfed animals in their cages. However, Claire did pay attention to the big animals like the giraffes, elephants, and zebras, and anything that moved (spider monkeys, meerkats and surprisingly the warthogs were running around too). We met our friends Steve, Victoria, and Sophia there which was a treat!

It is very difficult to get a photo of these gals where both of them are looking at the camera!

Claire and Daddy went through this tunnel to get a closer look at the meerkats:
Daddy had to stoop a little bit, but Claire was just the right height.

More than likely she is pointing at all the dirt, not the elephants.
