Since Caiden and Cambry have been going on field trips at school, I decided Delaney needed to have one to the Sedgwick Co. Zoo today! She had never been there before and she was pretty excited. The number one thing on her list to see? Bunnies! We never did find any, but that's okay. She also wanted to see zebras, elephants, and giraffes. We did find those!
All in all, most of the animals were pretty boring today -- sleeping most of the time. However, we decided to eat lunch by the chimpanzees because it was cool and quiet. And because they are my favorite! Wouldn't you know it? As we ate, 3 chimps came and joined us (on the other side of the glass of course). I could tell they had been looking at our food from a distance. They finally got curious enough to come check us out, holding handfuls of some kind of pellets. The "old guy" even knocked on the window as if telling us, "See what I brought?" It was such a delightful lunch!
