The Honolulu Zoo

Mommy's favorite early childhood memories were spent at the Honolulu zoo, so what better place to take us for an adventure? The Kage grandparents came along with us as we fared through the hot and humid weather. It was quite sad looking at the animals that paced back and forth in the cages, but maybe the weather was getting to them as well. Many of the areas were either "out" or under construction. We can see how great it will be when and if all the attractions are back online.


Grandpa Kage strolling us through the entrance as we pass the flamingos.

Sophie looking like a Japanese tourist. Mommy made her wear the hat!

The Elephants take a bath.

Sophie's favorite attraction...the monkeys.

Zebras and giraffes. Grandpa Kage was determined to find the giraffes as we went all over the African Safari to find this attraction.

Hannah and mommy trying out the combi carrier that Auntie Joy gave to us. Thanks Auntie Joy!

I think we all lost some weight that day, we sweat out a few pounds. Although it was hot we didn't manage to hit the beach as there were jellyfish warnings and alot of scattered showers.

Sophie showing grandpa her excitement of the monkeys. Mommy was embrassed as people turned to see where the squealing was coming from.

What are we looking at? Rhinos!!! It was quite a sight to see.

Sophie enjoyed the little jungle gym and loved the slide a little too much. I had to pry her from it, so we could go home.

Here Sophie is trying to make her way back to the jungle gym.

Grandma Kage sits patiently with Hannah in the shade waiting for Soph Soph to come back.


Run Sophie run!


Piggyback ride back.
