Zoo time
This was a fun activity that we did one day. It was a great day, sunny and about 70 degrees. It had been cold a few days before, and the weather man said that it was going to be cold after this day. We were so greatful that we had a sunny warm day to visit all the animals. While we were at the zoo we met one of Aby's good friends, so she had a great time, and kenzie had a great time with Bryn. We are so greatful to have her live so close. Kenzie and Bryn are the best of friends.
The first stop after the monkeys was the Elephants. This is always a favorite for the kids. You can see the Elephants in the background. it was really cool because as we moved down the path the elephants came closer and broke a big stick to chew. The girls were impressed with how strong the Elephant was. On a side note, one of the female elephants is pregnant right now, and will have her baby in another 19-20 months. Can you imagine how hard it would be to be pregnant for 2 years!!
I haven't been to the zoo in a while, and was shocked when I saw that they had completely redone the big cat area to an Asian Safari theme it was pretty cool. In this picture Aby and her Friend Mati Ball are on a statue of a Tiger.
Now it was Kenzie and Bryn's turn.
This is one of the items that the shops in the Asian area were selling. I didn't buy them (they wanted 15 dollars a had.) The kids did have a great time trying them on.
Finally at the end of the day we stopped at the playground. This has also been redone and added to. Kenzie had a great time on the giant spider web, and Aby had fun on the snake slide until she was running up the stairs too fast and fell and hurt her lip and nose, then she was done. Kenzie like the slide also when she found her way out of the spider web.
Ahhh the end of the day, we were tired, but had a great time, and we can't wait to go back again.
