The boys had so much fun. I think the play place was their favorite part. Cooper sure liked the giraffes, though. The rhinos were my least favorite - I have never smelled anything so disgusting! The monkey village was . . . an experience. You go into this open area that is fenced off from the rest of the zoo where the little monkeys roam around freely and you can observe them up close and personal. I probably wouldn't have thought much about it, except there are signs posted everywhere telling you if you don't bother the monkeys they won't bother you. What does a monkey consider being 'bothered'? And if they are bothered what does that mean they do? Don't they tend to fling their poo? Needless to say, I didn't make direct eye contact with any of the monkeys and I was in and out in record time. Oh, and the lady at the entrance told us not to touch the ropes because the monkeys pee on them and when I looked over at my 3 year old he was running his hand along the rope. Yep. I think next time we'll skip the monkey village. Ick.

Thank Goodness for baby wipes, right? Yeah we totally skipped that part when we took the kids a couple of weeks ago. It made me nervous just looking at it, plus we saw it towards the end of our trip and the kids were tired already.
How fun-- I LOVE the zoo! I really want to take my boys, too, but it may have to wait 'til Logan no longer takes two naps a day:) Joe actually has a shirt, with a cartoon monkey on it, that reads, "Who Flung Poo?" Hah hah!
Lol. This is what I'm saying! Monkeys - ick. They are much cuter on TV than in real life. :)
