The Zoo!

On August 2nd we took our first trip to the Blank Park Zoo. We had a surprisingly fantastic time there. Emmett had just started giving up his morning naps so we went straight from 9:30am church to the zoo. He took a brief nap on our way there.

We saw the...

Birds..

 

 Kangaroos..

 

Giraffes..

Monkeys.. 

Carousel..

Fish!

We had a great day at the zoo! We also rode the train and saw several other animals like the seals, penguins, lion, camels, etc. Emmett got a duck pillow pet from the gift shop and is really enjoying it. Duck was his first word so he has a special affection towards them and he also loves to hug and lay his head down on really soft pillows so it was a win-win! It may not be a huge zoo but it was just big enough for us to spend a few very enjoyable hours there before coming home to take a long nap.
