the zoo trip

ever since justin and i were sorely disappointed by the "national aquarium" in washington d.c. a few weeks ago, we've wanted to visit the aquarium/zoo in omaha. and just like when we wanted to go play laser tag, we brought my two littlest sisters as a kind of cover for doing kid-like stuff. so the four of us visited henry doorly yesterday. here are a few of the pictures from the trip.

here are all four of us in the reflection on the granite sphere outside the desert dome.

three sisters! but i have to say the pink d.c. hat thing was totally unplanned.

here are some of the animals we saw:
and here we are trying to find out where we are...

you have to look closely here...see the giant gorilla handprint? rachel is in the picture for scale.
and here it is again. but then again, rachel's pretty small.
