Atlanta Day 2, the Zoo

On day 2 of our Atlanta Trip, Feb 20th, we went to the Atlanta Zoo! The kids just love the animals and they were certainly getting their fill of marine and land animals this weekend. The Atlanta zoo isn't much bigger than Nashvilles, but this zoo has an amazing gorilla and monkey exibits. We also went on a train ride and played in the kids zone. The kids were pretty worn out and we took a nap when we got back to the hotel. We then went to the Hard Rock Cafe for dinner.








This gorilla was pounding on the glass at us. you can see Emma in the reflection.

This is the newest gorilla in the zoo, only 9 months olds. Rick just loved watching the gorillas and didn't want to leave and move on to see the other animals, but when the mama gorilla took the baby gorilla out of sight, he was ready to move on. It was amazing to see this little guy, his mom would just hold onto his leg and not let him wonder off.












The first video is Emma drawing the animals that we see. The second is the baby gorilla.
