Milwaukee Zoo

Guess who was told they wouldn't get anything if they continued to be naughty? (picture below)

We took the kids, my dad and neice Chelsey to the Milwaukee Zoo the other weekend. The weather was perfect. There were plenty of people there! Drake was so excited to go, wearing his tiger shirt and listing the animals he was going to see. Zebras are his favorite, so he was really looking forward to those! He got a big kick out of the big orangutan (however you spell it) that was outside. The orangutan had a piece of cloth that he kept sticking into a tube that was on the outside of his cage, he would pull it out and stick it into his mouth, sucking the cloth. We didn't know what was in there until one of the workers came out to talk about it him and it was water that was in there. It was funny watching him!

We finally got to the zebras and they will be best remembered by Drake saying "Zebra pooped." Yep, that's what the zebra did when Drake was watching him. He thought that was exciting. We saw all the animals (I think) and were pretty pooped out after that. Drake fell asleep right after we got in the car. We stopped at the ice cream place after so we could all get something cold to eat. The older kids enjoyed the animals, but it was Drake's first time really understanding what they were, so that was fun to watch. * Click on pics to see larger*
