Trip to the Zoo with cousins

                             August 4th 2011  A trip to the Zoo with cousins Aunts and Uncles.
Bion, Bria and Max observing snakes and other reptiles

Addi-Belle, Bria and Max and more reptiles.
Pa wanted the kids to come and see the large turtles
and compare them with the ones that are in
Grandpa and Grandma's yard.

Orion, Bion, Addi-Belle, Max, Bria
all looking at the peacock.

We had a great lunch at the Zoo.
The kids meals all came in a souviner bucket

This was a pretty sight, a bird in a tree of flowers.
It was prettier in real life.  There were a bunch of birds
waiting for crumbs from the crowd.

Afterwards, we all headed for the duck pond. 
All the kids were able to feed the ducks.
There is a machine for food for 25 cents,
and it gives a handful of duck food pellots.

More feeding the ducks.  Orion is holding his
souviner lunch pail.

Everyone was so hot.  We found a spot that spouted water,
and the kids all ran into it to get cooled off.

Bria, Payson, Orion, Bion and Max are at this one.

Orion could not get enough, so he finally sat on one spout.
