March of the Penguins

For those of you that don't know, the St. Louis Zoo does a "March of the Penguins" in the winter on Sundays at 2:00. As long as the temperature is below 50 degrees, they let a few penguins out of their cages and parade them through all the spectators.
Well we decided to check this out on Sunday.
When we first found our spot along the "parade route", Liam was all over the place. He kept walking up to all the other children around greeting everyone with a smile and a wave.

Once the penguins were let out, Liam actually let Daddy hold him and he seemed genuinely enthralled with the penguins and what they were all about. Of course as soon as the penguins were right in front of us was when my camera died and I had to pull out the trusty cell phone so these pictures are not as good.

After the excitement we ventured on to see the monkeys and then got Liam his penguin souvenir. As seen in the next picture, he really did have a great time and completely wore himself out!

So if you are looking for something to do on a cold Sunday, go see the penguins! :)
