Mother's Day at the Zoo

The baby orangutan and her Mom. A very neat sight on Mother's Day.
Grandma Obert, Patrick, Angie, and Aaron at the Phoenix Zoo.

They had a Mother's Day breakfast that morning sponsored by a local grocery store. They were supposedly able to feed 500. When we arrived we stood in line and then realized that it truly went on FOREVER. We weren't near the 500 mark I guess, but the line didn't move quickly so we decided it wasn't really worth it. We visited the animals and had a snack. We arrived about 9am and left around 1pm. It was a very nice morning. It really wasn't getting too hot until we were getting ready to leave. Then the heat was a little intense as it was over 100 degrees!
A view from inside the zoo.
Aaron's first visit at the zoo at almost one month old. He is "wearing" the hat that Patrick wore his first trip to the zoo, although he was 3 months old then and it fit a bit better.

Patrick got to play in the water area. He certainly had a good time.
