This weekend we took my sister, who is visiting, to the Capitol of Texas Zoo. This is one of those jenky zoos where they let you get really close to the animals and even feed some of them, which makes it the most awesomest zoo ever!
Here’s Anthony feeding a deer!
This deer was soo cute, with big fuzzy horns. He would let you pet him if you fed him enough.
Nicole fed a camel. He was slobbery and drooly!
We were able to watch the lion feeding. That was pretty cool. The lion would jump up on the fence and grab a frozen chicken right out of the zoo keepers hand!
This was my favorite goat. He’s an old man goat!
And don’t forget guinea pigs at the zoo!
I recommend the CofTX Zoo. It’s no San Diego Zoo of course, but it’s fun and cheap and has a good selection of animals.
We also did another Austin activity that I’d yet to do- Canoing on Town Lake! A canoe rental is only $10/hr and it’s much easier than I thought it would be. We saw fish and turtles and lots of dogs. We had a fun time, except I forgot sunscreen:
