While we were on our “vacation adventure” out to Baltimore, MD…we took a couple extra days to visit some zoos. The day we were planning to visit the Baltimore zoo it rained…so we did the next best thing and went to the Bass Pro Shop! At least we got to see some animals…only they were stuffed. There were a few LARGE moose and several kinds of bears, including a Grizzly. They also had a large aquarium with types of local fish. So there were some live animals!
The second zoo we went to was in Columbus, OH on our way home. That one we were actually able to go to, and if anyone is thinking of going there I highly recommend it. It was very large, you could spend your whole day there. We only spent 2 ½ hours, but we did cover a lot of ground.
When we go places like the zoo we use our Step 2 wagon, we can no longer use the double stroller since Luke is way too tall and since he doesn’t control his legs well, they usually hang over and get caught in the front wheels. So for Christmas last year the grandparents got the kids this wagon so it would make going to the zoo and other places like it much easier…which it has.
No matter where we go we always have to visit the zoo, not for the kid’s sake but for my husband’s….he is a zoo fanatic. He wants pictures of all the animals…even if you can’t tell what it is when you look later on. I’m not sure Luke and our baby girl cared for a whole lot. Although our baby girl really liked the penguins and Luke really liked the gorillas and monkeys. He got really excited when he saw them.
Luke also liked the Polar Bears who were playing a lot in the water with the blue barrel and our baby girl showed her dislike of the roaring lion after about 20 seconds of listening to him roar. I’m not sure he was her favorite.
