rainy zoo day

this wet and dreary morning was spent at the zoon with gram, pap, and benjamin.

as we waited for them to arrive, emma happily stood in the rain stomping puddles, catching raindrops with her hands, and letting the little droplets drizzle down her raincoat.



























we stayed inside the rainforest area to keep ourselves dry, and emma enjoyed a special seat at the top of ben's stroller. the double-decker as we call it.

















the mammals seemed fairly active, especially the orangutans (indonesian for forest person: orang=person, utan=forest). there was a sweet little baby rolling around and playing with what seemed like an older sibling. then the mama came up very close to the window to say hello to the gentleman who manages the animals at the zoo. it was a bit surreal watching them communicate without any sound at all. there's always something new to experience at the zoo.

choo...choo!
