Seattle: Trip to the zoo

While in Seattle, the boys and I joined Leslie and Zoe for a trip to one of our old favorites, the Woodland Park Zoo up on Phinney Ridge. Nick and I had a membership and would visit often to see the animals and just walk through the beautiful grounds. Way before that, before Nick was around, Greg and I lived in an apartment about 10 blocks north of the zoo and could hear the siamangs and lions early in the mornings... ok, enough with the trip down memory lane and on to the photos...
