more about the zoo



Well, I left off my zoo pictures mid-stream, and now I'm out of chronology. But I'm going to finish the zoo pictures before moving on to tell about Vail, otherwise I'll be hopelessly off-track! So here's a happy Esme with Mooga at the zoo.


M. workin' his new Flip Video.

If you've never seen a polar bear underwater, you're missing out. The grace and ease of such an enormous creature in the aquatic environment are a sight to see.








Esme finds a friend. A friend who wants to hug her.

Tuckered out in the rainforest.

M. shows Esme the hippos. Esme is perhaps less than impressed.

Huh-new friend looks an awful lot like one of the girls at daycare-who loves giving hugs and frequently overwhelms S with them to the point she needs to be held back. Need to ask if they were at the zoo that day...

Thanks so much for sharing it was neat to see the polar bear-they have two in disney at Animal Kingdom so cool to see them swim!

It looks like your little one's going to have some good toddler company!

You're so lucky the bears were in the water! I just love that! Nice shots by the way....Its hard to get decent ones through the glass....

Oh my, loving those polar bears. Saw one live for the first time two years ago at Seaworld. I have been in love with them since. They look weightless and soft as cotton under water.

Esme is ADORABLE!
