Omaha's Zoo

Since today promised to be a cooker, we planned to go to the zoo in the morning.

 We girls hadn't been inside the Desert Dome for a while, so that was our first stop.  Here are some meerkats and klipspringers.
 The wallaby was enjoying his mid-morning snack.
 The bobcat was my favorite in the Desert Dome, looking high and mighty.
 Julia's favorite animal today was the giraffe.  She liked watching him stretch waaaay up high to reach a branch.
 Evelyn really liked exploring the critters in the aquarium's touch tank.  Julia, on the other hand, didn't want any part of it.
 The aquarium is pretty amazing.  The girls loved watching all the fish and penguins.
 And the shark tunnel is always a favorite, where the sea creatures swim right over your head.
 We ended the morning with a train ride.  The girls wanted to ride in the last car so they could be as far away from the locomotive (and its loud whistle) as possible.
