New Zoo

Now that summer has come to and end we are finding ourselves with more free weekends. So we quickly put the zoo date on the calendar so we wouldn't forget.
 
We meet up with Jeff & Lisa at their house and headed up to the New Zoo in Green Bay
 
 
 
We have never been to this zoo, but we heard great things about it from Jeff & Lisa so we were excited to check it out!
 
 
The girls were able to get up close to the giraffes and feed them leaves, the boys on the other hand refused to step close to them....mmm my boys, scared of the giraffes...
 



 
 


 I've always loved watching the polar bears at the Milwaukee zoo swimming under water, but today we got to watch the penguins zooming back and forth.








 
Take1 was Lisa trying to get a picture with the kids, however only Lainey was willing to go. Take 2 was the girls wanting to take their own picture with the gorilla.
 

 
 
There were so many animals to see and we made sure to see every last one of them.
 




 
Many of the stops we found ourselves stuck for awhile, locked into watching the animals. It was great they were so active today, and unlike the Milwaukee zoo where they are so far back, these animals were close and easy to see.



 
 
 
 
The whole gang!

 

 
And the silly otter doing tricks just for us, he kept our eyes glued on him for quite awhile.
 
 
 
What else could possibly be so interesting??

 
From both sides of the pond?
 
 
Why the frogs of course, can you find any?



While the boys stayed glued on watching the monkeys
 
 
 
 
 
 
The girls took a ride on the train!
 
 
 
After the zoo we headed back to Jeff & Lisa's for a pizza dinner and then headed back out for ice cream.
 
Because to be honest there's no better way to end the night than with an ice cream treat!
 
 
Which one do you think was the favorite amongst the kids? Of course the most colorful one right in front, the blue one, also know as The Superman!
