We Belong in the Zoo


We went to the zoo.  There is a lot of walking at the NC Zoo in case you forgot from the 4th grade.  And it all seems to be uphill too, no matter where you are walking!  Aside from the workout we all got, we also got to see some fantastic animals, had a nice picnic lunch by a lake, got to ride on the tram a few times for a break, and all took a nap on the way home (except Daddy-  thanks for driving sweetie!).

The giraffes were first up on the agenda and boy did they impress.  Sam and Tyler were both absolutely amazed at seeing a real life giraffe.  They were both giddy with excitement and this excitement held thoughout most of our trip.  Sam also really enjoyed the zebra and crocodiles (all animals from one of his favorite books, "Where's Spot?").  Tyler's favorites were the chimpanzees, dinosaurs, puffins (they were actually pretty cute), and the turtles (he is really into the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles right now).

Aaaaahhhhh!  A T-Rex is chasing us!
