my aunt, sister, mom, brother, and myself all joined addison for breakfast with santa at the rainforest, a part of the metro park zoo.
the rainforest was a nice, warm respite out of the bitter cold we have been having!
as we entered the rainforest, we saw santa sitting in his chair...addy was not ready for an up close visit, so we waved and she told him she'd be back later.
we got to touch a hedgehog, and polar bear fur, and a little snake (although i did not, i absolutely can't stand to look at one, let alone touch it. yuck.).
we headed into the actual exhibit area of the building (not the food court area like we assumed it would be), and found our table. we grubbed on a buffet of bagels, eggs, waffles, smoothies, juice, coffe,sausage, and bacon.



we met the rainforest frog, but we ended up never seeing santa. by the time we were ready to visit him, he had to leave.
we still had fun playing in his chair though! addy passed out candy canes for us all.



then we headed into the rest of the exhibit area to say hello to the animals.

our faces as we watched the orangutans.
this serious faced oraguntan suddenly would smile. then stop. then again.
it was so funny.


a nice, warm time was had by all!

Santa slipped away and went back to the North Pole to work on all those toys he promised. It was fun to sit on his chair. Addison was cute with her, "Ho, ho, ho!" and passing out candy canes.
The zoo could have passed for the North Pole that day. But it was a lot of fun. And Addison was so good and so CUTE, as always.
HO, HO, HO!!!!!!!!
