The Zoo

We try to go to the zoo once a year, but we don't always make it.  This year we bought a membership, so we need to go a lot more. We were really excited about the zoo's new Rocky Shores exhibit.  It had a polar bear, grizzlies, sea lions, seals, bald eagles, and so many cool things.  The kids loved going to see all the animals.  Kodi seems to have an affinity for the animals in water.  She loved watching the polar bear and the seals.  Kyson's favorite part was the train.  He was asking us the entire time we were there when we'd go ride the train.

We saw a bird show, but missed the elephant show.  One of the trainers was holding a falcon and let us take a picture with him.  Kodi wanted to pet it - I'm glad he stopped her.  The kids got restless during the bird show, but a carousel is a quick way to get them excited again.  I was surprised, because they even enjoyed eating lunch.  Everything was so great. Of course, by the end of the day we were tired, and ready to go home.  I'm excited to go again, and we want to go when it's cold to see how the cats are in the Asian Highlands.
