Knoxville Zoo

My mom and I took Carter to the zoo today. I'm getting a lot of use out of our zoo pass this year!

Carter took his first carousel ride today. He really enjoyed it!


One of the female elephants was spraying herself with water while we were there. I kept waiting for her to spray the crowd but she was polite and never did.




Carter and my mom ...


One of the gorillas was hanging out by the glass. We had to wait a little bit to get our turn to be next to him, but I'm glad we did. Carter loved looking at him and was stretching out his arm to him.


Carter fell asleep when we were about to leave but I noticed that the bird show had just started so we went over and watched that while Carter napped. I've never been to it before. It was actually really good. They have a very impressive parrot with a huge vocabulary that was entertaining.

It was a really nice day today - high 70s with patchy clouds. A perfect day for the zoo!
