The OC Zoo

Here is a map of the OC Zoo.

It is a small zoo, but what do you expect for $2 a person, and $3 to park. It opens at 10 am and we arrived at 9 am so we found some other things to do at the park. There was a playground and a pond with many ducks and I saw 3 peacocks roaming around. There is a train ride, that we watched go by, but didn't ride on, for $4 a person I thought it was a rip off, especially since I would have to pay for Tino. Nix's favorite animals at the zoo were the snakes and the mountain lion cage. He says "All of them" are his favorites right now. The hi-light for sure were the goats. There was a quarter machine to get some feed, when the goats saw you at the machine there were about 6 of them sticking their heads out of the fence. The boys loved it, Nix fed them and Tino pet them. We were nasty with goat spit when we left, but they had a sink with soap and water when you exited the park.









There was a pack of coyotes behind Tino here.
This is the water wheel by the train track outside the zoo.

Nix brought his ostrich and camel back. Here is Tino with one of the peacocks roaming around by the pond in the park.

We love the zoo too! Especially this time of year when the animals are out and active. We have tons of peacocks at ours too. Your boys are getting so big! I love the pictures of them playing with their dad too. So cute.
