Cleveland Zoo

not liking the frozen fish

exploring

a little too close for comfort.

It seems like we were there so long we did so much. On o ur final day we started the morning at the Cleveland Zoo. They have an amazing zoo. It is big and they have so many animals, I think it's even better than the National Zoo, sorry. Becca and I decided that all Zoo's are built on a hill on that is a really lame idea. Afterall kids are the people that come to the Zoo and the moms and dads have to push them up these huge hills. We started at the top where we had to zig zag up a path to the top of the hill. It was exhausting so it was good the boys were around. We got to the top and there was Cheetah right in front of us. It was so close to us. Then we went to the ape house/aquarium. Yes that sounds a little strange but they were combined. All the animals were very entertaining and they even had a shark. Siena thought it was going to escape the tank so she didn't get too close. The Zoo had different areas/parts of the world and we saw these cute Koala Bears. We saw Giraffes too which they don't have at the National Zoo anymore so it was fun. Siena and I waited in line to go in the Butterfly house. It was hot and humid but there were beautiful butterflies inside. Siena took all the pictures in there. One of our last stops at the Zoo was the Sea Lion pool. It was the coolest thing. For $1 you got 2 fish that you could feed the Sea Lions. We thought our kids would love it and they were excited until they held the frozen fish and they wouldn't throw it in. Scarlett was brave and did them. The big Sea Lion was the only one going after them and he would come up and beg for them. Very fun and I am glad we were there at the right time because I guess they only do it for an hour during the day.We were very impressed with the Cleveland Zoo.
