Aaron had the Friday before Memorial Day off of work, so we decided to take a trip to Asheboro, NC to see the zoo. It was Will's first ever trip to the zoo, and he loved it!
Here he is ready to enjoy Dora & Diego's 4-D adventure. We couldn't believe that he kept his glasses on for the entire movie.
We started off in the Africa section of the park, while it was still sunny. First stop, was the aviary and the baboons. Aaron and Will enjoyed cooling off under the mister.
We also checked out the albino alligator on special exhibit. Spooky looking!
Then we made our way over to the giraffes... hard to see in our self-taken family portrait, but there goes one, just behind my head.
The elephants, tigers, ostriches, and zebras were pretty awesome, too.
Will wanted to wear his zoo button for all of 10 seconds.... not quite long enough for me to get a picture.
We stopped for lunch just in time, as it started pouring down rain. Then we found some "sheltered" activities, like the carousel and movie.
Then we traipsed over to North America, getting just a little bit more wet along the way. Check out that big gorilla sleeping right up next to the glass.
Some continental highlights were the honeybees, chimpanzees, and the bears. Our final stop was the seals, who obviously weren't bothered by the wet weather.
It was a long day, but we had a great time seeing the animals and being together as a (happy, wet) family.
