The "Companzees"

Last time we went to the zoo, we decided to go ahead and get a zoo membership. We’ve been on numerous occasions and decided that the $30 membership would more than pay for itself in the long run. This past visit, the boys and I went with our friends Megan and ‘baby’ Luke. On this particular adventure, we finally discovered the chimpanzees. I'm not quite sure how we have missed them up until now. The boys like to refer to the chimpanzees as ‘companzees.’ I have a feeling this will now be their favorite exhibit. We have been enough times at this point that they know where to go and what animals we are going to see. Currently, they like the elephants, zebras, giraffes, and llamas. The zoo is in the process of building a new elephant exhibit, so it will be interesting to watch the progress over the next year.
