Hilo Zoo

And now back to Hawaii! You thought I was joking about having them up by summer ;)

These were taken at the Pana`ewa Rainforest Zoo & Gardens in Hilo (which was surprisingly free). They had some beautiful animals and birds for being a small zoo. My favorite was the Blue Hyacinth Macaw named Zoey, she was stunning!

We ended our afternoon by visiting the official Mauna Loa macadamia nut factory. Since it was a weekend, their self-guided tour was a little dull with no one working :) We did get to sample everything in the gift shop though!

I think that last picture of Ada pretty much sums up how I would be feeling after your whirlwind Hawaii trip! Good grief, you guys packed a lot in!
