Birthday Weekend Trip to the Zoo

The day after Liam's birthday movie trip we went to the zoo, something we have traditionally done around his birthday.

 Throwing pennies and making wishes.

 I think Liam wished for good presents.

 Traditional polar bear shot.

 Only one polar bear was visible and it was napping.  No idea where the babies were.

 Stopped for an early lunch.

 The train.  Waiting in line was hard for Devin.  Then he couldn't see much, but refused to let me hold him.  He kept saying, "I want to sit the train!"

 He also was not really into the momarazzi.

 Random art shot.

 Liam likes to climb onto the statues.  It was pretty busy and Devin was waiting, so this was a little rushed.

 These birds, with amazingly long tail feathers, seemed to have trouble flying.

 Don't remember what he was saying.

 The new aquarium is still very popular.  Devin paid a lot of attention to the fish.

 Liam had been waiting all day for the opportunity to pet the rays.  He had to wait through a pretty long line.  Devin had no patience for it, so he and I went back to looking at the tanks while Allen and Liam did the petting thing.  Just as well as they don't recommend that toddlers partake.

 We're starting to be a little wilted by this point.

 The reptile house was a little cooler.  At least they had some fans.  I'm not sure if Devin's suspicious look has anything to do with the huge crocodile he was looking at.
