Saturday morning we took Sipsey to the zoo bright and early. They open at 9:00 and we were probably the 2nd family in line at 8:50. These colorful beauties greeted us at the entrance.
Next we saw the lions taking a morning nap.
Then we were so lucky to get an up-close-and-personal visit with this tiger. He was pacing back and forth in front of the window. It was actually scary. Nothing more than a 2-inch piece of glass separated us. Sipsey kept turning her head away from him.
And then this tiger was doing the same thing! They must've been feelin' spunky so early in the morning. Or maybe they wanted a sweet little girl for a morning snack! She was being sweet on Saturday so I didn't let them have her!
We snacked throughout the day and took time out to take a few pictures together.
We ended our morning by playing in the water fountains! Sipsey was not brave enough to run through the powerful streams of water, but she did find this water spout to be just her size!
And she played with it the whole time! There were a couple of kids running everywhere around her, but she was content right where she was.
I think we have a new Saturday tradition. Getting there right when the doors open was the best idea we ever had. There were no crowds and we had a really great time!

That sounds like it was a ton of fun! We haven't taken Jacob to the Atlanta Zoo yet but are looking forward to it. He loves animals!
