The day after Thanksgiving, black Friday, we decided to skip all the crazy shopping and head to the Zoo. It was a great decision because there was no one there and it gave me a way to walk off some of the food I ate from the day before. Our mission this time was to see the big cats. We always miss that part of the Zoo somehow. It was also a very nice day weather wise. Here is Lincoln on his favorite thing at the zoo, the train!
Kennedy liked the train ride too!
We stopped off at our favorite place to eat at the Zoo, the Texas Wild Food Court. Kennedy had just started to point to things and say "this" when she wanted to try something.
After we ate, Lincoln really wanted to ride the carousel. Kennedy wanted to ride too.
Next, we headed up to find the lions and tigers.
We finally found the tigers, and as many times as I have been there, I had no idea they had white tigers. They were beautiful!
There were three of each of them, so pretty
I guess it was a day of trying something new because then we headed over to the birds so that we could let Lincoln feed them. I love this exhibit, you can buy feed sticks and go in this huge bird cage and they just flock to you. It is amazing how close you can get to them. That is Craig feeding a bird.
Kenny wanted to touch him
Pretty blue one
Lincoln was a bit timid at first, but he finally wanted to feed the birds. Here he is with a white and blue bird on his feed stick. Sorry, I have no idea what kind of birds they are, haha.
After the birds, we headed over to the duck pond so Kennedy could stretch her legs.
Lincoln was showing her the ropes of the duck pond.
Craig taking a little break.
Do you see the ducks, Kk?
Looking cute!
They had a great time. We topped it off with some ice cream and then they both crashed out for a nap, it was awesome! I can't tell you how much we love our Zoo. It was so much better than shopping!
