It was the first weekend that the mercury hit 74F and sunny. What is a family of 4 supposed to do on such a great day? Go to the Zoo of course!
Once we got there, we beelined for the butterfly house. The girls just LOVE the butterflies! They have different species in a variety of colors and sizes.
The butterfly house is connected to the bird house where again one will find different species in all different colors and sizes.
New to the zoo this year is the carousel. Naturally Syd had a ride! The carousel is amazing, for lack of a better word. It doesn't just have horses. It has bats and seahorses and dinosaurs and eagles and giraffes and snakes and all kinds of different animals for the kids to ride. And if there is any confusion as to which species you are riding, have no fear, it is listed above the animal!
Next stop was the polar bear exhibit. I love this exhibit because you walk through a path containing placards all about the Inuit people: how they survived, what they ate, where they lived. Also on the path is the white fox and seals, again with placards about each animal. And then at the end of the path is an underground area where you can see the polar bears and seals swimming under the water through very thick Plexiglas. The other amazing part about this structure is that it is air conditioned, which was actually my favorite part! Now I know that you are all thinking: Wimp... its 74, whats the problem. The problem I tell you, is that for the better part of 5 months the temperature has been less 32F which is freezing. I'm very much acclimated to less than 32F and 50F feels warm and wonderful so 74 was a bit much.
As we were about to leave, a pretty little bird flew and landed right in front of us. Ray was armed and ready and began shooting! I'm so excited we managed to get this great shot of him looking directly at us!
And through it all there was absolutely positively no knitting. I just enjoyed the day out with my family!
