We had some unusually cooler temps at the end of the week with the highs in the mid-80s. We took advantage of the pleasant weather on Thursday and rode our bikes about 1/2 a mile to the neighborhood lake for a picnic. On Friday, we visited the zoo. We repeated a favorite activity -- feeding the birds -- but mainly we tried to see parts of the zoo that we hadn't made it to in our two previous trips -- the Tropical Bird House, Aquarium, Animals of the Nights, Cat Country, and we rode the farm train.
Annie loves Choo Choo trains.
This was Annie's first time to really get down and explore at the zoo. She loved the ducks in this free-flying bird area of the Tropical Bird House. She also thought the penguins were ducks.
Like the chick chicks, Annie liked the birds from a distance.
This is as close as she let Mollie get.
You can't tell by Annie's expression, but she LOVED the train. She said, "choo choo, choo choo, choo choo" all the way around. And then she cried when it was time to get off.
There are a few fair-style rides at the zoo and Ben and Mollie rode the Tilt-a-Whirl.
Mollie always likes an pic in the egg shell.
