Field trip to the zoo!

I had some free tickets to the zoo this summer, but I decided to wait and use them after school started so it would be less crowded. We went last week and the weather was so gorgeous. It was a beautiful day to be at the zoo!


(We even had a clear view of Mt. Rainier!)







Evan loved touching these guys...


Asher was really nervous about it, but he eventually did it. Ellie just liked splashing in the water.




The tigers were feeling playful. This guy was playing with his string and he looked just like a giant house cat. After he got bored of his string, he and the other tiger started wrestling. It was fun to see them so active!




The walruses were a huge hit because they kept swimming so close to the glass. This guy was doing the same lap around the tank... over and over and over...






Ellie was totally mesmerized by them. She would have stayed just like this if I'd let her!


So much fun to spend a school day at the zoo!
