Hungry hungry hippo!

See the hippo?


No? Look more closely...





Ta da!! Hi there...


I had the greatest time visiting the St. Louis zoo in October... I have never been this close to a hippo before... It was pretty cool. And, I learned that hippo skin releases something like slime to help protect their skin... Hehehe. Very cool.

Hee hee hee! I love hippos. Next to the orangutan, they are my very favorite animal!
