Burr, it's cold!

The current weather conditions are saying it's 9 degrees out, but feels like -8 degrees. Where's the best place to go? The Brookfield Zoo, of course. People always think I'm a little crazy to say that, but Fall, Winter and Spring are my favorite times to go. There's so much to do indoors, and I guess other people don't think it's the best place to go, so it's usually not crowded at all. Today, hardly anyone was there. First stop ... the Hamill Family Play Zoo. We got to pet rabbits and lizards, watch the lemurs get fed and the boys favorite ... spray the plants. We also went to the Tropic World, where we were able to ask questions to the docents about the different primates, and The Swamp to visit the alligators. We were not there long, but it was a great way to get out of the house in this otherwise unbearable weather.
