Last Friday I took my kids and my niece to the Point Defiance Zoo in Tacoma. I hadn't been there before. It was a perfect day to go. It was warm and sunny. And thanks to our zoo pass, it was free. I love having a zoo pass. The zoo was pretty small. They didn't have a lot of animals there. But they did have a whale and some huge walruses that I thought were pretty cool. They also had a play area for the kids that looked fun, but we didn't have time to play. The kids still had a blast. We saw most the animals there and had a picnic lunch. Alli fell off the bench of the picnic table and her knee started bleeding a little. I didn't have any band-aids, but I had some spray Neosporin and sprayed that on her leg. The rest of lunch she kept telling me that I should have brought band-aids :)
Alli and Jackson. Aren't they cute. They're in front of a cage of lemurs. There were a bunch of them in there and they were jumping around and playing which is always fun to see at the zoo.
There's an aquarium in the zoo too. We didn't stay too long in it because there was a presentation going on and it was really crowded. But the kids did take time to go in the shark's mouth. I think they're so cute posing with their hands on their hips.
I told them to make a scared face and that is what they came up with.
Jack, Allis, and Jordan. Can you tell Jordan is saying cheese? I think they're in front of a cage that had a monkey and an anoa. Alli was telling Jack that the anoa like to eat monkeys.
Jack, Alli, Jordan watching the baluga whale. We got to the whale just in time to see demonstration. So we saw the whale doing some tricks and talking. He came near us a spit water at the kids next to us. Allison kept getting a little scared when he would come close to us. She kept hiding behind my legs. When Jordan was sitting in his stroller, he saw that a lady standing in front of us had a bag of fishy crackers. He loves fishy crackers. So when he saw them he started grunting and pointing at them. It took me a minute to know what he was pointing at. But once I saw I told him he couldn't have any and he was mad and threw a little tantrum by throwing himself against the back of his stroller seat. It was pretty funny when he did it and I smiled at him and then he smiled and did it again, trying to be funny. He kept wanting the fishies though and pointing and grunting toward them.
