Como Zoo = practically free Labor day of FUN!

Yesterday we went to the Como Zoo to celebrate Labor day. I have not been there in years, and boy have things changed since the last time i was there. The weather was so nice and cool, and even braved walking around while it was sprinkling a few times.
We started off at the Conservatory looking at all of the plants and flowers. Asa even threw a few coins into the fountain.

We went out to the main zoo area and took a picture of Asa with the famous Como Zoo turtle. Right as dad was snapping the picture a duck crapped on his head! It was hilarious! We were both upset after the fact that we didn't get a picture of the crap on his head.

Adam got one of these guys below to become pretty fascinated with his watch. He would hold it to the glass and the little monkey would try to reach out and grab it.

The baby orangutan was definitely a highlight! It was so cute and was constantly playing/messing with dad.

At the end of the trip we took Asa on his first carousel ride. He was SUPER freaked out at first, and then he fell asleep by the rides end.

All in all it was a GREAT trip to the Como Zoo!!
