Fort Wayne Zoo

Here's the video I promised: Dave and Josh playing the drums.

On Thursday, we had another beautiful day, so we decided to take Dave to the zoo. We bought a membership which is reciprocal to get half off the Evansville and Columbus zoos. We'll definitely get our money's worth!

Our first stop was the African Safari. They have a male and female lion. We spotted the female easily from one side, but couldn't see the male. When we walked around the corner, we found him sleeping against the glass.




Dave up close and personal with the lion. He's doing his lion roar.









He was fascinated by the giraffes this time. I think they have six now.









In the snake/fish area. Dave touched a corn snake. Or at least came close to touching one.










These turtles are much bigger than the ones at home. Dave calls our turtles "curtles" and he kept yelling it at them.





The zoo was crazy crowded with elementary school kids. Dave really loved that and was just as interested in the kids as the animals. In the petting zoo section, it was chaos. Dave just ran around from one goat to another.





Love the reaction in this one.







I will come back tomorrow and post a video of Dave and Josh playing drums in the African section.
