Toronto Zoo

 Our membership at the Toronto Zoo expires this month, so, being Dutch at heart, we have been going there as much as we can as the last month ticks away.  That way us monkeys can bond with their monkeys. :p  We usually head out for an afternoon-and then the zoo is nice and empty! :)

 We have been checking out parts of the zoo we haven't seen as much, and this time we saw the capybaras!  They really are big rodents!

 We also looked at the spider monkeys-and they are one of the few monkeys we've seen at the zoo that actually use their tails climbing.

 Flamingos were cool too-standing on one leg was fascinating, we thought!

 But cooler, by far, were TREES!

 Trees that could be climbed. 

 They were just sitting there, waiting to be climbed.  So we did it!   (Three boy monkeys in a row!)

 Melanie was miffed that her tree was stolen by a bigger monkey than her-but she did end up finding a subsitute.

 Indoor displays are pretty cool too.

 And you'd never believe what we found in the gift shop!  The cutest ever little baby zebra!  So we sold our van, bought it and took it home on the bus! :)

Not much grass here for grazing!
