Minnesota Zoo

On Friday, we decided to go to the zoo, where they now have the African animals exhibit. Giraffes!! We participated in what will be a one time experience, although Leiden will ask every time we go: we fed the giraffes! For $5 (!) you get two smaller-than-graham-cracker size crackers specially for the giraffes. Leiden was totally game, and didn't seem leery at all.


The zoo worker then offered to take a picture of all three of us with the giraffe, and he went for us! (Notice Leiden is still totally calm.)


Mac seemed to like them, too.


Mac and Leiden playing on the playground. I do not spend the money for a season pass so they can play on a playground, but it's hard to tell them no when every other kid is playing!

We wandered out to the farm at the zoo, where we saw baby cows and pigs, and Leiden got to ride (sit) on a tractor. She's a natural.

What should I plant next?
