A visit to the Lowry Park Zoo

We had a 2-day adventure and went to the Lowry Park Zoo.
The first day we just took Adam and Eliza because the other kids were in school.
 I don't mean to alarm you Adam but there is a giraffe about to lick your fluffy hair.
Ah, lettuce is so much more delicious than hair.
Adam was a little bored without the other kids.
 
 Sibling rivalry, something he can relate too.
Eliza was not to sure about the goats,
 
or the train,
but she loved the carousel.
Adam loved the carousel too.
The second day we took these wild hooligans too.
 
The water is always the most popular attraction.
 
This might be my favorite series.
Merry talked Grace into going on the water log ride.
Grace didn't notice the big drop off at the end until after she got on the ride.
Her look pretty much sums up how she feels. 
Notice the look of sheer terror on Grace's face.
It must have not been too bad because she rode it again with Brian and the boys.
The after getting drenched picture.
We also looked at some animals while we were there.
The meerkats or meek rats as I like to call them, were my favorite.
