A visit to the zoo

In keeping with our new "no stress diet" we decided to check out the local zoo. I took over 170 pictures (before my batteries died) and thought that I'd share a few...

I have to say that the zoo was so much nicer than anything else we have seen so far on this trip. It only cost us about $30.00 and had so much to see. There were animals from all over the globe.

The girls had a really good time. Unfortunately, seeing all of the animals they now want a pet tiger, a pet bird, some small monkeys and of course a few lemurs to keep them all company...

There were lots of baby animals to be seen which made the girls happy. We stopped at the petting zoo for a little while and then checked out the nursery.

Becky and I decided that we liked the aviary so much that someday we'd like to have one. The girls of course agree whole-heartedly.

Erika and Emily played around with the exhibits... Emily almost got eaten by a bronze crocodile that looked very hungry!

All in all we had a pretty good day. We're all just trying to stay in good spirits and awaiting next weeks move away from this area. If the weather holds out we're hoping to make it to Minnesota the first week of June to visit with Becky's dad and work on some projects.
