On Labor Day we headed to the zoo with the Walter family! We made sure to get there early (glad we did as the parking was FULL when we were heading out around 1ish!).
Our first stop was the stingrays...well, actually the kids got all kinds of excited about the geese! Check out this pic...all 5 kids were staring and chatting about the ducks as all four adults were trying to persuade them to get moving!!!
We finally made it to the stingrays!
Unfortunately though, Jack and Nick couldn't touch them because of all their tattoos on their arms...they had gone a little tattoo crazy on Sunday...even putting them on their faces!!!! I hope this doesn't speak for their future! Dan LOVED them! He even bought food to feed them. That was kind of freaky though, as the stingray would swim over his hand and suck up the little piece of fish that Dan had between his fingers! UGH!
We managed to even have time to ride on the train and the carousel! Surprisingly the boys chose animals near each other...that NEVER happens!
Luke kept asking to see the "elephants" so we definitely had to make a stop there! Nick was pooped already and had found a happy spot atop of Dan's shoulders by this point, so he didn't make this picture!
After we saw the elephants, we headed home! It was a perfect time too as the crowds were pouring in when we were leaving and Angie and I were both complaining of the heat...well, maybe not "complaining," just "noticing" the temperature! :)
