On our way to the wedding, we stopped at Binder Park Zoo in Battle Creek. Despite the rain showers as we were eating lunch, we had a great visit at the zoo. E loved visiting Africa. Giraffes up close are pretty amazing. A little guy shared a piece of lettuce so that E could feed the giraffes, but she'd just threw it at them. She was a bit scared of their long tongues.
We saw zebras, ostriches, red kangaroos, monkeys and zebus...didn't know they really existed...thought that Larry the Cucumber made them up. We saw lots of birds...a dinosaur...we knew E was tired when she didn't want to climb up on the dinosaur and play.
E's favorite part of the day was the carousel ride and seeing the turtles.
I was a bit disappointed that we arrived as late in the day as we did, but 2.5 hours for two little kids at the zoo was more than enough. They were ready to go and so were we. It was fun but very tiring.
