Recently I was able to accompany Caleb's class on a field trip to the Wildlife Zoo and Aquarium. I was a little apprehensive about taking Myah since we would be gone all day and she would miss her nap. I didn't need to worry because both kids were fantastic! They both thoroughly enjoyed all the animals and Myah would put her arms up to want to hold everything she saw. Caleb was in love with all the different animals and we had to take pictures of almost everything. Thank goodness for digital cameras - we snapped over 200 pictures that day! Other than finding his kangaroo hat (it was stuck in a bush and no one claimed it so I left him keep it), Caleb's favorite thing was feeding the giraffes. It was really cool to see how far they could stretch out their tongues for food.
Some other highlights were the petting zoo (we smelled like goats by the end of the day and the animals tried to eat Myah's dress), the aquarium (you could pet stingrays), feeding the Lory Parrots and Turacos (see the video below) and the safari train ride. I would recommend the zoo to anyone in the Phoenix area. It was a great way to spend the day and at the discounted field trip price was well worth it.
Here are some of our favorite shots and a couple of videos.
