Nothing like a Base-wide power outage from 5am-6pm to make you want to go outdoors...to the zoo! There was a planned power outage on Thursday for maintenance, and since Clara's school is here on base, that meant she had the day off from school as well. So we headed to the zoo with some friends.
Bella, Madison, Jonathan, Jackson, Clara

'My what a big tongue you have!'
The only way to feed a giraffe is to stick out your tongue too!
Yum!
The tiger was actually awake this time!
Watching the Orangutans and Chimpanzees
Clara on the Orangutan
Jonathan hugging the Orangutan
Even the wolves were out, and they began to howl!
The new male wolf. The person observing the wolves was extremely excited to see him howling, because it meant he was finally getting used to his new home and ready to take his place as Alpha dog, rather than continuing to let the female dominate.
Digging for dinosaur bones
Uncovering a dinosaur skull with Madison
Jonathan found some dinosaur eggs
A Stegosaurus plateA great day a the zoo with friends, ending with dinner at Chick-fil-A. We got home just after power was restored! It doesn't get much better!
