Yesterday I purchased an annual pass for the LA Zoo. Our nanny will take Astrid to the zoo at least once a week and Uwe and I can also go with Astrid on the weekends. 
Today was Astrid's first visit to the LA Zoo. (The first zoo she visited was the Children's Zoo in Central Park in New York.)
Our nanny bought Astrid this cute LA Zoo hat. I tried to give her money for it afterwards but she wouldn't accept any money for it.
The pink flamingos.
The into to the 70's TV sitcom "Three's Company" was shot at the LA Zoo. I found the video footage on retrojunk.com. If you'd like to take a trip down memory lane, turn up the volume and click on the link below.

Right now the LA Zoo is featuring all of their baby animals. How apropos for our baby (Astrid) to go to the zoo to see other babies.

Does anyone know what kind of bird this is?
A seal swimming in a pool.
I prefer San Diego Wild Animal Park where the animals can roam free and their natural habitat is reconstructed, however the LA Zoo is very close to our house and it's still a great learning place for kids. Astrid can participate in more children's activities and events as she gets older as well.
Our nanny said Astrid wasn't really interested in the animals, however she was very interested in the people. It's good for her to be out of the house in the nice weather, seeing and experiencing new things.
I can't wait until she's older and we can have a birthday party at the zoo for her and her friends.

Okay, it's official...Astrid is hereby awarded the "Most Traveled Tot Award." I'm sure glad my boys don't know about you're blog. They'd become jealous very quickly! By the way, love the "bumm" pictures. So cutie patootie.
