At the Zoo

Juan, Audi, Josie & Gabby ready to start our adventure.

Audi loves ducks.

We got up early just for the Stingray exhibit.

No. Just a fountain full of youths.

the seals put on a great performance

Josie wanted to see the Stingray exhibit at the zoo so bad that we had to go. We haven't done too much other stuff this summer and break was already over. We got there early to enjoy the free parking, free stingray exhibit and free children's zoo. If you get there after 9:00am all these things cost. It was a HOT day. So we spent a lot of time with the penguins. It is kept very cold in there which is right up my alley. I can't take the heat at my advanced age and premenaposal state. We all had a great time and I got lots of great pictures with happy smiling kids. I had to threaten them in order to get the great pictures and great smiles but a mom has to do what a mom has to do. I want them to look back at this trip and remember it fondly.
