Santa Barbara

This last weekend we took a trip to Santa Barbara and while we were there we decided to stop at the zoo. Tyson is a little too small to really enjoy it but he did get to see some of the animals and even make friends with a meercat. We saw so many cool animals. Elephants, gorillas, sloths, a toucan, leopards, giraffes, lions, flamingos, penguins, lots of cool birds, and many different types of monkeys. While we were next to the giraffe cage there was this cute little meercat all alone in his tiny cage. The glass from his cage touched the ground so it was perfect for Tyson to walk up to and take a peek. The instantly became friends. The meercat looked like he wanted to play with Tyson. At the end of our trip at the zoo we bought Tyson this little monkey that hangs around your neck so he could have his own animal for home. He loves it.

We'll probably try to go back to the zoo when Tyson is a little older and can fully get the whole experience but this was a fun first time for us. Tyson just loves animals. Who knows maybe we'll have our very own vet. The next zoo we want to go to is San Diego zoo. None of us have been so we're looking forward to it. And Sea World. Until then...
