3-day weekend and trip to the zoo

I love 3-day weekends. A lot. After a great few days of homework, relaxing, movies, birthday cupcakes, and making up apartment songs, we decided to have an adventure yesterday. After all, it is the last break of the semester. I went up to Salt Lake with some friends. We embraced our inner 6 year olds and went to the zoo! It was great. We saw all sorts of animals, and I had a scary run in with a wild turkey (see picture below). My favorites were the monkeys and the meerkats. Afterwards, we went to the This is the Place Monument across the street and then to Ikea on our way back to Provo. What a day!
