Oakland Zoo

This weekend Todd and I took the girls to the Oakland Zoo. It had been a few years since I'd been there, but the kids had gone a couple years ago. They have a new children's section which I really liked. For the most part the zoo hasn't changed but I have to say it's still a great place to take the kids.

This is a Sun Bear. He was rolling around in the grass.

Two types of camels. Todd shot this from the tram ride.

Brushing and petting a goat in the petting zoo section. They didn't have many animals to pet but the girls didn't mind.


This is a prehistoric alligator from 15 million years ago. The info said he ate dinosaurs. Cool!

To finish off the day we hit the ride section and let the girls blow $16 on rides.

They claim this was their favorite part of the zoo. haha
