Zoo Afternoon

Today we took off to visit with our Lanza Cousins (Lester, Vanessa, Joshua & Christina) since they live and Katy and we are down in the Clear Lake area meeting at the Houston Zoo was a great middle spot. We had not seen them for sometime and getting to the Zoo after the AM rush was great. It was hot and humid and did not have many people, it was slightly sprinkling and that made it nice and with the cloud coverage. The kids just were all over the place, we stopped for a pizza lunch with soda and played in part of the Children's Zoo. I'd have to say the favorite was the carousel which we rode on twice. Merlova rode a giraffe the 1st time and had a major crying fit when it was time to get off it. So needless to say we rode it a second time, that way too Christina could ride, she did not want to go on it the time before. Kids in the water tunnel with piranha, playing the pretend tree roots, and the young ones on the carousel.
