Zoo Time

When my mom and Justin (my step-brother) were up over the 4th, we went to the zoo and took advantage of their long hours for members on Wednesday nights.  It was really nice to walk around when it was a little shadier and less crowded!

Gamma and Ike hanging while Dave groomed the goats.











Dave really loved this huge skeleton.

Dave said, "We're gonna go on an adventure Mom!".  

Dave and Ike checking out the orangutan.  It was right next to the window!

Justin and Ike waiting for the carousel to be over.

Dave and I got to ride the carousel thanks to a token donation from some strangers!

Ike was really channeling the statue.

Dave's favorite part of the zoo...dancing in the misters.








Love the zoo and can't wait to go back!  It's such a perfect trip for a half-day.  And as a bonus, the kids really do seem to have fun.
