An afternoon at the Singapore Zoo

Here are some pictures that we took at the Zoo today.
This is a bright red bird that was with the flamingos so I think it is also but it was hard to see. I took this picture for Joe - Dani says he loves Flamingos.

Here is a picture of the elephant ride - the kids and I voted that Grandpa Don would love to do this and the kids can't wait either!
There were Ben and Jerry's stands all over the zoo and a bunch of Holstein cow statues. We had to partake before we left.

Here is a momma orangatang if you look closely she is holding a baby. It was amazing how fast she could go without dropping that baby.



The polar bear we were there just before feeding time so there was a lot of commotion.



Here is a great picture that Andrew took (well he took almost all of them except the pic of the Lions that I took) of the zebras eating.






Here are the 2 lions. At one point they both got up and did some sniffing around - Emily and Jacob thought that was gross!




Here are some ISU flowers. I have seen these all over around here so I am thinking I need some on my patio.







There is a wonderful Orchid garden to walk through.












Dani's project was on the chimps. There were 3 little babies in there. They were having a great time and were fun to watch.

















There is an alligator that is at the entrance that tried to eat the kids but luckily they were able to save each other. :)






We had fun at the zoo and signed up to be members so we can go back and back. It will be a lot of fun when we have more time to stay and ride the elephants and get there when you can feed the kangaroos. We missed feeding time.
