Family fun at the zoo...

We had a great time with my parents and our friends Jonathon, David and Margot at the SF zoo. The weather was crazy. We arrived in sweatshirts and hats and one hour later we were in short sleeves and slathering on sunscreen. We had sun the whole afternoon. Nina finally started getting over her phobia of farm animals and actually brushed and petted a goat. She even saw a baby quail hatch out of its egg. Here is a pic of Nina in the bamboo and riding a tractor in the petting zoo. It was such a nice day, except when the killer seagulls tried to steal our food. One of the seagulls stole a whole hot dog right out of a lady's hand! It was truly a remake of the The Birds. Nina's favorite thing was getting up close and personal with the lioness. The lion was right up to the glass and Nina went up and kissed her nose. Even though there was at least an inch or two of glass, it was still unnerving to watch.
