Have I mentioned that we are having fun here!! We got to go to the zoo for free with a pass from our library, YEAH for FREE!! I'm not sure if we go to the zoo for Aiden or for me. I love the zoo!! We had so much fun, even though it was HOT! This was in front of the flamingos. A favorite of mine at the zoo.
This zoo is cool because they have several exhibits where you walk into the animal's area and get to be right up close to the animal. If the animal would let you, and if you wanted to risk loosing a finger, you could reach out and touch them. That's how close they are. I loved it! Oh...Aiden did too. The exhibits we got to walk into were the Marmosets (kangaroo), and the monkeys. That little tiny fence did not stop the Marmosets from jumping over and coming right up to the stroller. So fun!
The monkeys were jumping and climbing all around you. It was awesome to be so close.
A favorite part for Aiden was the water play areas. They have two. Aiden walked around the fountains that would shoot up and hit him right in the face, and he didn't even care. He loves the water!! They have water slides and all kinds of fun things to do in the water!
My all time favorite animal at the zoo is the Giraffe! Aren't they awesome! Aiden and I paid to go feed them. Aiden was so brave to hold that piece of lettuce while the giraffe's long, slimy, blue tongue came at him! He would only do it that one time though. He didn't think it was as fun as I did.
The giraffes get two pictures on my blog because they are so cute. I just love them!
The tiger came and layed right in front of us. It was awesome because then Aiden actually saw it, and it made for a great picture!
They also have a petting zoo and farm area at this fun zoo! Aiden LOVES tractors, and thought he was in heaven when he got to sit on one all by himself.
We got to pet the goats! There were lots of them, and they didn't mind people at all. Aiden was squeeling with delight and patting them and they didn't even notice he was there. He loved petting the goats!!
We had a very fun day at the zoo! We love doing fun things for free! See my other blog below about our trip to the Children's Museum!
