Cheyenne Mountain ZOO

Today we went to the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo in Colorado Springs.
We had a great time! The weather was beautiful, (minus the wind).
We invited Tyler's new friend Payton to come with us.
We got to see everything!
Giraffes, elephants, tigers, wallaby's, bears, birds, monkeys,
zebras just to name a few.
I think the highlight for Tyler was feeding the GIRAFFES.
They have the longest tongues I have ever seen. If they come
close enough you can pet them too. That is always fun.
Payton didn't want to feed the giraffe. I don't blame him. It feels kind
of gross if you ask me. Payton was the navigator. He wanted to
make sure we saw everything and I think we did.
We can't wait to go back again.



Hello Mr Giraffe (very friendly)

There is a carousel at the zoo.
I think Payton really liked the ride

It isn't a big zoo but there is plenty to see and you don't have
to spend the entire day there.

We went to that zoo when we were there a couple of years ago. We loved it! It looks like you did too!
