Daisies at the zoo

Ella is now a Girl Scout, and her troop (is that what they call it?) went to the zoo on Saturday.

The boys, however, wanted nothing to do with a bunch of girls (ewwwwww!) and so they dragged me off to go exploring with them.

We could have just was well gone to the park, as they were fairly uninterested in seeing too many of the animals, and far more interested in seeing what they could climb on, across, or through.



Consulting the map to plan their next "adventure." We had to do this often, always keeping track of where we were on the map as we traveled through the zoo.



There is a wolf back in that picture somewhere. Not that they were that interested, what with those logs to climb around on.



Hey, animals they liked! Frogs, lizards, and snakes. Go figure. Or maybe it was the fact that you had to climb the wall in order to see the top cages.



Wandering off in search of their next discovery...



Which was a scary cave.



There was one kid wandering around going "oooooooohhhhhhh" like a ghost and trying to scare all the other kids. One giant scary dad in the cave made short work of that kid (and even snapped a picture of it...)



Does this even need an explanation?



And finally, as we were walking out over the bridge, Ella discovered this.



Lost it eating cotton candy! How on earth do you lose your fourth tooth eating fluffy melt-in-your-mouth sugar?
