Zoo Adventures

This past weekend we took the girls to Port Defiance Zoo...it was a beautiful even HOT day and we managed to pack everything in. Angelica loved the penguins, the live show and liked the big walrus from a distance. Both the girls had a BLAST riding the camel and talked about it for days! They loved the aquariums and trying to feed the birds. The zoo has a great children's section with things to climb on and play on, water fountains to play in, a big slide and goats to pet and feed. Emma LOVED the goats and would have fed them all day...Angel on the other hand wasn't thrilled with the experience. Angel walked the entire day and was such a fun little trooper! At the end of the day they enjoyed TWO rides on the carousel and had to switch riding on the horse to the pig and then enjoyed some yummy ice cream (which Angel had been seeing and asking for all day around the zoo) while we watched a peacock strut around. We decided we need to do this more often and should have bought a membership as it would pay for itself in three visits....definitely want to check out the Zoo Lights in December. Good family fun!!!
