Last Saturday, we took Amaia to the Farmers' Market up in Salt Lake and then to Hogle Zoo. She loved watching all the people and dogs at the Farmers' Market. I think she didn't quite know what to think about the zoo when we first got there. There were a lot of people and it was hot. She loved the elephants. It was Dari, the elephant's birthday and we watched her pull down a giant pinata filled with popcorn. She made her usual sounds as she saw monkeys, bears, tigers, giraffes, etc ("ooh, ooh, ooh"). She loved the snakes. We let her roam through the snake house and touch the window where a huge python was sleeping. I think she would have try to carry it away if she could. She chased the meerkat along its window back and forth-that was pretty funny. By that time it was getting really hot and she was ready for a nap. So we stopped by the train for a ride. I think she liked riding the train, but she wasn't too interested in the sites we passed. She was more interested in the zoo map she had found on the ground. Oh well, go figure. It was fun to see her reaction. We will have to go back when she is a little older.
