The North Carolina Zoo

OUR TRIP TO THE NC ZOO!!!!!!!

On Friday the 13th I finally go to visit my first real zoo!

My mom, Beepa, myself, Cortney and her boyfriend and friends

all went to the Zoo.

Our first stop was called the Sonoma Desert

It's like giant dome and inside they keep the

environment like Arizona the plants were awsome!

The Cactuses were huge alot of the animals were snakes and reptiles.
I think I would really love Arizona the plants are beautiful.




Next was the tropical bird sanctuary. Inside was so humid
it felt like walking into a tropical rain forest. The birds were gorgeous.

The Flamingos were outside and relaxin in the sun!

After we went to see the Gorillas.

There was the silverback male and his harem of woman.

He came over with his vegetables and decided to eat next to us

It was amazing!

There was a lot of monkey's...

My favorite were the baboons with their extremely ugly butts

(those things are supposedly sexy lol)

The Chimpanzees were soo cute and very friendly

They loved to pose for the camera.

After we went to the African side where I got to see a Giraffe for the first time

They fascinate me the most they look so freaky and cool at the same time.

I was soo excited to see the elephant.

He didnt have a name posted so we named him

Herman.

Beepa and I posed with over sized ostrich eggs.

We couldnt tell from far away if the alligators were real or made of cement

I had to whistle at them to get them to even open an eye

They were totally still like statues.

In the North American side was the polar Bear.

His name was Willy and he's 23 years old

They got him from a Chinese circus and he is now living out his retirment in peace.

These were the cutest animals at the zoo.

They're artic foxes, once they saw us coming up they ran to the fence

I think they thought we would feed them.

The sea lions were gorgeous Mom was able to capture them under water beautifully.

The zoo was awsome. Lots of exciting things going on down here.

I got a job and hopefully will be starting soon.

Valentines Day was quiet but Jason sent me a present in the mail.

He's good like that. Miss everyone back home alot.

But I am totally in love with the weather down here.

Well I'll update this soon

Love you all!!!!
