We went inside to see the elephants close up, Addison liked this. We taught her how to make an elephant noise and raise her arm like a trunk, it's pretty cute.
Well we can't see the elephants, but here is Ryan, Evonne, and Addison at the elephants.
She started riding on our shoulders more this summer, she grips onto Ryan's face pretty tight. It's hard because when she wants down, she means right this second. So it makes me nervous to have her on my shoulders!
This was so long ago that I don't remember what was in the display on the right.....
The lions were probably the best display there. They were right up close to the glass. Of course, it felt like everyone at the whole zoo was at the lions, but we still got to see them.
When Addison roars, she puts her hands out like in the photo above. We think it's pretty funny. The lions apparently got fed while we were there, and two of them starting fighting. They slammed into the glass. It was pretty cool but also pretty scary when your two year old is nearby. Thankfully Addison didn't see them fighting, it probably would have traumatized her.
The animals weren't entertaining enough apparently, so we played peek-a-boo behind a pole.
We could climb up in a safari jeep and pretend to drive. There were lots of sound effects with it as well. She thought it was pretty fun. And she even let Grandma Evonne get in and ride with them.
We chased each other around the elephant trailer. I think this was the trailer they used to weigh the elephants with.
She LOVED the aquarium. And good thing there was a lot to see because she didn't slow down long. She just kept moving. We went through one area twice. And it was nice because it was air conditioned and it was a pretty warm day.
I apparently didn't get any photos but she really liked the rainforest and the cases with the frogs. There were some bright blue frogs that she thought were super cool. It was a good day. It was long and a little warm, but she was a trooper!
