Field Trip

Laurel and the Elephants

Laurel, Jack, and the Monkey

Wallabies (small kangaroos)

What a group! Looking at the fish below....

Feeding the Lorikeet! ....

Touching an Iguana...

....and a Snake!

Monkeying around!
Landon's class went to the zoo on Wednesday for a field trip. I couldn't take Laurel with me so I took her with a neighbor and another friend the week before. The zoo here is about the size of the Jackson zoo...only SAFE and CLEAN! And all of the cages actually have animals! Amazing! Anyway, it is the perfect size for children this age...not so big and overwhelming like the New Orleans Zoo. They have a little petting zoo area where you can feed the sheep, goats, and ponys, an african walk-about (you just wind through a maze of Wallabies and Ostriches), and a Lorikeet House where you can buy cups of nectar to feed them. We had tons of fun! Hope you enjoy the pics.

Can't believe how much Landon and Laurel have grown. Can't wait to see them and I really can't believe that Landon is going to be six years old. See you July 2nd!
