Dan's Trip to the Zoo

On Tuesday we decided to stay close to home and take Daniel to the zoo for the first time. So we went to visit Greenville. Even though I know that Daniel can't enjoy the animals it was still a lot of fun to take him and show him the animals. It was also fun to just imagine what it will be like when he is older.

All of the animals were fun to see but the best part was the leopards. Normally cats in a zoo are boring since they are sleeping or just pacing up and down the cage. Tuesday though all of the cats in the zoo were awake and the leopards were particularly active. They were climbing around on the tree branches and we got to see a leopard fight! One of the leopards was on a tree branch and the other leopard was watching from the other side of the cage. Suddenly the one leopard ran across the cage and jumped onto the tree branch and the two went crashing down to the ground. The tree branch broke and they were growling and roaring at each other. It was pretty exciting!

It was so much fun to go to the zoo as a family and even though Daniel was too young to know he was at the zoo, it was still so great! We love animals and I really hope that Dan loves it too!
