The Zoo doesnt have dragons...sorry Eddy!

We took our kids to the zoo the other day. I expected it to be warm so my kids in skimpy summer clothes, Danny was the only one with a sweater and we were all jealous. It was FREEZING! Luckily Eddy was so entertained by the animals that he wasnt worried about the goosebumps all over his legs.
The baby elephant was the cutest thing ever. We saw her nursing with her mommy.
Eddy wanted to ride the merry-go-round over and over and he LOVED the giraffes!
Sadly, there were no dragons at the zoo. Eddy really wanted to see a dragon. He kept asking over and over to see one, thanks to the movie, "How to Train Your Dragon."
He loved the train as did Olive. (thanks for the sweater Danny) I think the zoo is the perfect place for a 2 year old. It's so cool for them to see all the animals they read about in books for the first time. I personally have never liked the zoo. Working with the school district for so many years with regular field trips and summer camps to the zoo made me a zoo hater. But going with my own kids was a blast, I've been converted to enjoy watching the caged animals, sorry PETA.

I also love to see the animals. I don't really know how to reconcile that. Oh well. hahaha.
