Leilani loves animals. She doesn’t have mommy’s concerns about loss of freedom and habitat, so the zoo is one of her favorite places to be. These pictures are from the Austin Zoo where we spent a whole day during our recent vacation with Andy’s parents.<\/p>\n

Some of the animals do run free:
\n<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/a>
\nWait, that one doesn’t run free, Andy leaned over the safety barrier to photograph through the fence.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Andy had to lean way over the safety fence for this one:
\n<\/a><\/p>\n

Maybe too far because they noticed, and they didn’t like being woken up:
\n<\/a><\/p>\n

“Photographers taste gooood….”
\n<\/a><\/p>\n

The pumas are more realistic, we pretended not to notice who they were watching:

<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

At the petting zoo, the animals are more tame:

<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Leilani really liked the birds too:
\n<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Ooops… too pink.
\n<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

But in the end, she was most familiar with the cat who came to our picnic:
\n<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

We thought Leilani would enjoy the zoo train, but it’s just a ride, not really to see any animals:
\n<\/a><\/p>\n

So we had to find something to photograph:
\n<\/a><\/p>\n

To quote a song<\/a> on a CD<\/a> Leilani received for Christmas: “Well we stayed all day and I’m getting sleepy \/ Sitting in the car gettin sleep sleep sleepy…”<\/p>\n
