The Minnesota Zoo



On Mother's Day this year, Shafeen and I took Fayed to the Minnesota zoo. He'd been to a zoo before, last summer, when he was only around 6 months old. Needless to say, he had a much better time this year at almost 18 months! He'd been in love with the ducks in our back yard for weeks now, and I knew he'd love seeing more animals in person. We saw fish, birds, lizards, snakes, leopards, bears, flamingos, camels, and many more...but Fayed's favorite animal at the zoo that he couldn't get enough of - ducks! He also had quite a time with the wolverine - it walked back and forth, staring him straight in the eyes and would jump up at the glass right in front of his face. Fayed did great, he skipped his nap time and never even got crabby. I can't wait to go back to this zoo and the other one many more times this summer!
