No Bongos Were Hurt During This Trip to the Zoo with Unkie Jude

On Unkie Jude's birthday April 7th, Matthew and I took him to the zoo. We had a great time. Matthew said he wanted to show Unkie Jude the elephants, then giraffe, and then carousel. We did all of that and more.

We first found this animal called a Bongo.. which is the name of Matthew's favorite toy monkey. He has about 20 monkeys so it is an achievement to be ranked at top.

Of course we saw animals that we could see anywhere outside of the zoo. We were fascinated by the bunnies and the squirrels.


We went to the African Forest and Matthew got up close and personal with one chimp. Of course there is glass between them in case you couldn't tell.


He played in the playground.

Rode on Unkie Jude's shoulders to get a better view of the giraffes.



Lastly, we went out to eat at Five Guys burgers. Matthew really liked the peanuts in the shell.
