A Day at the Zoo

One of the reasons I moved was so that I could see and experience new things. In that vein, I decided we should go to Portland and check out the zoo.
The rainy skies parted and it was temperate and dry during our afternoon. We had a truly fun time. I hadn't experienced animals up so close I could practically touch them. I was most enamored with the never before seen Mountain Goats, Condors and the adorable Asian Elephants. There was so much to see that I don't think we got to see it all.
We even took the little train around for a short ride. Little guy picked up an elephant ear which he loved.
The hour and a half ride each way was gorgeous. Everywhere we were surrounded by distant mountains and beautiful scenery. Portland is a picturesque city of 2 million. I could see why so many choose to live there.
