We took Abby to the Ft Worth Zoo and it was so fun! As a side comment let me say that I am in no way a fan of wild animals being kept in captivity. I do not support the circus, nor will I ever take or let my kid go to one. I have mixed feelings about the zoo, but still pretty much cringe when I go. I had heard that this zoo ( and all zoos in general) had been redone and that the exhibits were much bigger and better now.
Hmmm, not so much. We still had a great time and it was so much fun to see Abby's reactions to all the animals. enjoy the pics!
Abby and I don't really do well in the car for longer than 20 minutes. Needless to say we were getting a little antsy on the way there. She wasn't really having the whole hair bow thing either!
We saw the gorillas first and I loved her reaction. She kept saying "Wow" over and over again. When we were leaving the were feeding them so that was pretty fun to watch.
Ok, this thing would make a grown man scream like a little girl. It was massive. I really didn't think it was real until I saw it breathing. I have some weird thing for crocodiles, so that was my favorite part.
Abby really liked the fish tanks and I love this picture of her reflection(and the hair bow was still in!)...
One of the funniest parts was when we were looking at the elephants and we thought she was really excited about them and she said " ball"! Uhhh, yep. There is a ball behind that 8 ton massive elephant, good eye honey!
All in All we had a great time and it is definitely a memory we will always hold on to.
