Field Trip

We picked up Papa this morning and headed to the zoo...

Most of the animals were out...polar bears, tigers, elephants, penguins... We love the sealions as they swim right up to the glass.

Ben insisted on walking most of the way. Mr. Independent wants to do whatever the big kids are doing!

The kids wanted to feed the birds in the Lorikeet Exhibit - a bird flew right by Sam's face and he decided maybe he didn't want them that close. We put our nectar on the ground and watched from a few feet away.

They loved riding the train...

Ben always wants to touch everything... Sam is too busy running ahead to the next exhibit.
Huge Salmon!
Driving the tractor...

We left at the perfect time - just as the kids were starting to get tired and cranky and the parking lot was swarming with people looking for spots!
