My niece is visiting for a few weeks, and today we went to the Tacoma Zoo. I'd never been before, and was pleasantly surprised. The zoo wasn't too big or too small, and seemed to be geared to younger people. Sophie didn't seem to mind the stroller we rented, but she preferred being in the snugglie on me.
I didn't take many pictures of the animals, but I took at least 1 with Amelia and the animal in the picture to prove that we were actually at a zoo. Apparently you can ride the camels at this zoo . . . but you have to be at least 3 years old. Maybe next year Amelia.
Besides the animals, they have a fun play area for the kids. Amelia liked crawling around the web and playing in giant shells.
But Amelia's favorite part of the zoo was the carousel. She would have ridden it all day if we had had the time and money. It only cost a $1, so I let her ride it twice. She was SO happy . . . until she had to get off. And then the tears started and we headed for home.
All in all, the zoo was a success, thanks to Richelle's help, sunny weather, and cooperative kids. Next time Ken will have to come with us.
