Trip to the Albuquerque Zoo

So I took the kids to the zoo because they start school on the 10th.  It was a fun and long day.  We arrived bright and early and headed to the train to go go over to the Aquarium and the Gardens. We watched the elephants play.

We went to the Gardens and went exploring.  Lots of fun.  They had a a really cool place for the kids to play.

After taking the train back to the zoo we headed to the Giraffes.  If anyone knows Casey has a complete love for them since she was way little.  On the way to the zoo she said “I think the Giraffes miss me, because I missed them.”  She and Carson were able to feed them.  What an amazing thing for her, she was in heaven.

Next we had lunch and then headed out to look at the rest of the zoo.  Most of these next pictures were taken by Carson.  He really wanted a chance to be creative.  He did a great job.

The camera died, but overall we had a great day.
