Autumn at MN Zoo

We took a family trip out to the Minnesota Zoo in October to enjoy the nice fall weather while it lasts. As often happens, Leif fell asleep on the way there and Bjorn woke up as soon as we arrived, so Aaron and I had a little impromptu photo op with Bjorn in the zoo parking lot while Leif finished his nap in the car. Since the zoo is already on winter hours (closing at 4:00 -- way too early!), we had to wake Leif up in order to have any time left to walk around the zoo grounds and see a few things. We just barely were able to complete the trek out to the little farm at the far end of the zoo, where Leif got to run through a hay maze, climb on a tractor, and feed the goats. I'm a big fan of the zoo in autumn. Too bad the beautiful fall colors and warmish weather can't last a bit longer...say, until March or so. (I'd take December!)
