So, after living here for over a year, I finally took my kids to the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo.
I would say that the coolest thing about this zoo is the giraffes. You can buy crackers to feed them and get very up close and personal.
This one was a baby giraffe that could barely reach the bottom of the platform.
They have such long, black tongues! This one was slobbering all over the railing.
It is a beautiful zoo - up on the side of a mountain, but that is one of the downfalls - it is very steep! To get anywhere you are walking up steep hills (and I was pushing Emma in a stroller). So, we didn't get to the whole zoo, but I'm sure that we'll be back many times.
Here is Josh in the monkey house.

David, sporting his turtle hat.

Rachel - checking out the chickens.
Petting the goat.
The view is really pretty.
I'm sure we'll be making it back to the zoo many times!

That does look like a really nice zoo! Looks like you had a great time!
It looks like a lot of fun. That is cool that they let you get so close to the giraffes.
Fun! It looks like Wild Animal Park in San Diego. I love the zoos where you get to see the animals so close.
Maybe you guys should get a goat to keep your chickens company in the new house? :)
wow neat Zoo looks like tons of fun. So nice to live close to a zoo, huh?
Great pix! Looks like a lot of fun. I've been here 10 years and still haven't gone. Kevin took a date there a couple of weeks ago and had a blast. I'm glad you got to go!
