Visiting Australia and the Zoo

I figured it was only fair that since Mom was on a trip that I would take a little vacation myself. Huffle Mawson invited me to visit Australia and she would show me around. I am looking forward to visiting a place where the temperature is COOL!

Hey Huffle, do we get to play with the koalas and kangaroos?
*******************************************************************************

Mom called today and said she visited the San Diego Zoo and saw the gorilla, the pandas and a family of giraffes.
The gorilla was behind a glass and it was getting dark, so it was difficult to get a good picture. The gorilla walked directly in front of mom, but the reflection on the glass was terrible, so this was the best picture she could get.

The pandas were eating and it was getting dark. They were so cute!

The is a family of giraffes - the mom, dad and baby!

G'Day, Mate! Mom hopes to get to Australia someday, maybe you can pick her up?

We think that giraffe family is very pretty, Praline! But we hope your Mom is not bringing a zoo critter home from the zoo!

Be careful teleporting around. You might end up on some crazy adventures like Cheysuli. Those zoo animals are cute, but not as cute as you!

I'm so glad you're on your way to my house Praline. Mum is taking us to the zoo to see some animals too.

PS. My mom loves giraffes! She loves them so much she did research on them in college and got to watch one be born at the Knoxville zoo.

The Atlanta Zoo has pandas, too. My mommy wants to panda-nap the baby, Mei Lan. She is supposed to be sent back to China soon, and that upsets us.

Oh I am so glad your Mom got to see the Panda, when we were in San Diego there was a long line so we didn't get a chance to see it. ~Alasandra

The Zoo is terrific, but I highly recommend the Zoo's Wild Animal Park in Escondido (about 15 miles north of San Diego). It's got a completely different feel from the zoo.

Your Mom was sweet to share her pictures of the zoo animals. Since you're visiting Huffle, you must tell me, is Salvador really a poo face?
