Some of Anya's friends were nice enough to take us (thanks Tricia, Nathan and Timothy--we LOVED it). I'm not sure which Anya enjoyed more--the animals or the 3 year old red-headed Nathan running around everywhere.


Anya was particularly impressed with giraffes. They have long necks, Anya has a very short neck, she's working on it though. (Bonus points to those who can actually see the giraffe in this picture without squinting their eyes.)

Anya declared she would like one of these for her first birthday. I'm sure her dad won't have a problem house training one for her.

As we passed some crocodiles, Anya paused and had a moment of silence in honor of Steve Irwin (the famous crocodile hunter for those who have no idea what I'm talking about). I wasn't really thinking of Steve Irwin, I was thinking of all the small dogs (and occasional 2 year old) that disappeared on my mission due to the croc's cousin, the alligator.

However, the cutest "animal" I saw that day would have to be . . .

As we walked toward the parking lot, Anya was ready to call it a day.
