Zoorasic Park

The Local Zoo around here has been pretty fun this year. They decided to go Prehistoric and brought some animated dinosaurs to the park. So when my husband took a week off of work we decided to have a stay-cation and enjoy the local Excitement. So we started the week by going to a cheap movie and the next thing on the list was the zoo.
Never fear though there were dinosaurs in the park the animals were safe and we still got to see some of the animals. Here is the baby elephant a couple years old.
We even got to see this ladybug checking out the zoo.
Back to the ferocious looking dinosaurs.
We even rode a dinosaur.
These wooden horses were very tame.
Looking at her you would think it was a cold day but no she just wanted to have her blanket to "protect" her from the sun.
Look out they spit!
Another nice thing about the park is they have this mini museum/display room. This is one large bone.
This is Allosaurus on the half shell
We even witnessed this dinosaur protecting her baby from the scary turkey. Because of coarse these Dino's are herbivores.

Zoo Passes

So this year as a family Christmas/Birthday present we got a zoo pass. We figured it would give us a year of family time that is something we only had to worry about price only once. We also got an Aquarium pass for the same reason. Here is our first trip this year to the Zoo.

This little toy camera cost a couple bucks and it kept her busy for a while. In fact at one point she insisted that she needed it to take a picture of the Apes. It was fun to watch her so excited to see everything and pretend to take pictures.
Isn't she cute with her blue hat and red sweater.
On the Merry Go Round. At first she was a little timid but here she is starting to relax and have fun.
Daddy and Baby Boy
If she looks sad it is because she just lost her ice cream cone.
Wow look one with me in it. Not overly flattering but we thought it would be a fun picture.
How Do You Measure Up.
Below are just some random pictures. Here is a large nest in a tree. A little curious what kind of bird made this nest. Any guesses?
The Baby Elephant with it's mommy.
I forget what kind of primate this is. But they are tiny little monkey type creatures.
The next 2 are for fun. We let our 3 year old little girl use the camera for a moment and get some pictures with her perspective.
