A Day at the Zoo

Our friends, Greg and Lara, told us about this fantastic promotion Bank of America was having. If you’re a Bank of America customer you could go to the zoo for free this particular Saturday, which is totally worth it since it’s $20 a person to go to the zoo and there’s no way I’d pay that much to see caged animals. (On a side note – zoos really are kind of sad when you think about it)

This was Kate’s first time and she had fun. I don’t know how interested she was in all the animals but she liked the lions and the monkeys were her favorite. She mainly just liked being outside and watching all the people/ looking for babies. I really liked the kid area of the zoo. The have a playground, petting zoo, train, and other kid friendly animals. Except there was a worker dressed as a pumpkin head and he kept following us around even though he was obviously creeping Kate out!

We had a lot of fun and it was really nice to hang out with Greg and Lara since we don’t get to see them as often since they moved.

  1. How fun! We wanted to take David, but I wasn't sure if he'd even have fun. Maybe next year he'll be a little more into it.

  2. Hooray for the zoo! And hooray for good friends! We had so much fun. Can't wait for the next bank of america outing! (And Greg's neck is much better so he'll be able to turn his head the next time.:)
