TRIP TO THE ZOO

When the zoo built its African animal addition, they added a giraffe-feeding platform.  You can pay to get lettuce leaves to feed to the giraffes.  We've never done it because there was always a long line and I felt like it was kind of a waste of money.  Well, the last time we were there, there was no line so we decided to do it.  It was the coolest thing!  On the way to the platform, the giraffes are right next to the walkway.  There was even one that was drooling and we had to avoid getting dripped on.  When we got to the platform, they only let one group feed at a time so it was just us.  We got four lettuce leaves so the boys each got to do two.  They loved it.  

There was also a special Lego exhibit.  There were about a dozen animals on display all built completely from Legos.  Very cool!
 

This picture wasn't planned but I cracked up when I looked at it and saw that Harrison looks like a chimp in it.  It would have been awesome if the chimp was walking instead of sitting and they would have looked alike.
