Zoo trip

Toward the end of April, on one of Daddy's days off, we decided to pay a visit to the Honolulu Zoo. It's been a while since we've been there, so we figured...why not? We called up our good friends, the Tuiteles, who decided to join us. It was ridiculously hot (probably should have gone earlier), but fun none the less.

Among other things, we saw...

the elephants (and not just their behinds),

the Sumatran Tiger,

the Orangutans (mid nap),
the giraffes and zebras,
and a very tired rhino.
After that, most attempts at seeing animals were unsuccessful as they were all napping or hiding from the heat. Luckily, the kids were easily entertained.

Kupa'a...was content as always just sitting in his stroller,
or being with mommy.
Ola...hung out with the baby elepani,
climbed up a giraffe,
made friends with the guy at the African Savanna,
had a snack,
and became an animal himself.

Luckily, we had a little bit of luck at the kid's petting zoo area.

Checking out the koi from the center of the koi pond,
and playing with the goats. Maybe we'll have better luck next time.
