We spent a long time watching the hippos at the zoo. In most every other zoo I have visited, the hippos were usually wallowing in a muddy hole, sleeping the day away. Not these two hippos. They were swimming everywhere, and then this one struggled its way up onto the bank so we could all see how big it was! Those things are HUGE! Their heads alone seemed bigger than my kids. Did you know that hippos don't actually swim, but they walk on the bottom of whatever body of water they are in? They are good at holding their breath, too.
