We took advantage of our first week out of school to head down to the Oklahoma City Zoo last Wednesday. The weather although toasty wasn't too hot, it was not overcrowded, and we had a great time!
This was our third trip to this zoo since moving to Stillwater, but the first time Rachel and Cole have been old enough to actually know what is going on around them. They were suitably impressed by the live, BIG animals . . . especially the ones they know from their story books such as zebras, giraffes, monkeys, and elephants. It was great to see the delight in their eyes as they opened up wide and their mouths formed a little "o"!
FAVORITES OF THE DAY:
Robbie: zebras, train ride, ice cream cone.
Alexa: train ride (her animal choice of the day- the giraffe)
Rachel: elephants and train ride
Cole: chimpanzees/gorillas, free roaming geese/goslings, ice cream
Note to self: Spring for the train ride more often. This is something I usually don't do, but it was obviously enjoyable for all of them!
