Everybody's Zooin It!

Last weekend we went to the Fort Wayne Children's Zoo for the afternoon. Beautiful weather and active animals made for a good day. Thanks to Clint's mom, we bought a Zoo pass for the year. I'm excited to go back again with Max and his new baby brother many times this summer.


We decided to take the sky ride across the African Safari. It was pretty cool to see the animals from that point of view. We thought they would be walking right below us- but since people drop stuff quite a bit, it is probably better they are out of harm's way. 



Max really enjoyed looking at the giraffes. He said they were his favorite. He also really liked the penguins and sea lions.  


I thought the Zebras looked neat. We had never seen them so close before.  


No surprise, Max's favorite part of the day was the drums! It was hard to get him away.


We only made it through two of the exhibits, so next time we hope to see the Australian section and the Petting Zoo. Hopefully we will make it to the Toledo Zoo as well in July.

  1. What a great day at the zoo. I can't wait to visit ours. That drum must be huge! Max looks so little standing behind it.

  2. looks like it was a ton of fun! we haven't been to the Ft Wayne Zoo in several years, but we love the Toledo Zoo - we actually get a membership there (we like it better than the Detroit Zoo, and it's not that much farther from our house).

    Max is getting so big!

    cheers,
