The Detroit Zoo

Better late than never.. am I right?

I'm a little late on this post, but it's only because I left my camera in Steven's car the weekend we met up in Detroit (which just so happened to be over a month ago).

Last month, Steve and I met up in Detroit.  For those of you who don't know, Steve is from Ontario, Canada and lives part-time in Nashville as well.  We do get to see each other often, although not as much as I'd like.  I'm super lucky that when he drives back and forth, he stops in Grand Rapids to see me and stay as long as he can.  Anyway... during our visit to Detroit we decided to wander around the Detroit Zoo. 

This was an interesting experience and probably the first time I went to a zoo during the middle of winter.  It was desolate and FREEZING, so we obviously took every chance we could get to run indoors to a warm exhibit. 







We could not, for the life of us, get a decent picture in front of the penguins.  It's my favorite exhibit of all time and I wanted to get a decent shot of us in front of the cute lil' guys.  We just kept making faces at each other.



Aside from the cold temperatures and the lack of animal exhibits due to the winter months, it was a fantastic day.
