Yesterday was Bailey's big day. Her last day as a kindergartener and her first field trip. We headed to the Point Defiance Zoo and Aquarium.
These were my two charges for the day, my own Baileybug and her BFF Angie.
We visited the aquarium portion of the zoo first where I promptly broke the rules by forgetting to turn my flash off.
Then we headed off to the Asian Forest Sanctuary which the girls quickly dubbed the stinky section, we found this big guy.
This next guy was causing a ruckus. They rotate the animals to this one specific "display" cage, meaning it smells like all of the other animals that had been in there previously. He was a bit stirred up hunting for them but it was neat for the kids to get to see him moving about.
As soon as we got into the zoo I asked what each girl wanted to see. I pretty much knew that Bailey was going to say monkies. I didn't anticipate that Angie would have the same answer. That should have made things pretty simple, right? Heh, except that they were all curled up in a basket asleep. Thankfully they woke up shortly (could it have been the horde of 6 year-olds tapping on the glass??) and the girls were happy with that.
Tootsie Roll break!
We went and watched a show after that and had lunch. Then I took some more Sudafed. After that I felt like this guy and stopped taking pictures.
