On our way home from NC we stopped at the big zoo. We like to really tire the kids out before hopping in the car for 17 hours. The hope is that they sleep a long ways. HA. It.was.awesome. They had so many animals there that are hard to find in zoos. They had them in really cool habitats too.
Brecken and Joelle checking out the zebras and giraffes.
Apes
Everybody acting all scurred about a bird way up high
This was one cool looking bird. But super duper weird. It kept hopping around pretending it's wing was hurt. It would be fine but then you would step closer and it would flop. Must be some defensive mechanism.
On the train ride. He looks so tiny.
Polar bear! He was doing some sensory activities with that big plastic bottle ;)
They had an AWESOME play area. If we had known about that first, we would have gone there first. Alas, we found about it last and it was closing time.
We really wanted to see the elephants. It was time for the park to close so we were totally "those people." Whoops.
Then the kids all wanted to take pictures with the cell phone.
Beautiful sunset heading into the city.
Sleepy Fitz kids. They always wrap themselves up...and cover their heads with blankets. Ha.
My favorite mountain. Pilot Mountain. We hiked it last time we came through.
