We visited the kangaroos first. Charlie loved to pet and wanted to lay his head on them (his way of giving a hug).

A couple weeks ago I had bought whole wheat hot dog buns and I'm sorry but after trying one I decided that when I eat a hot dog it has to be on a white bun! We've been saving those buns for this and the geese at the pond. The goats (and Charlie...) were not picky and gobbled them up!
Charlie started getting a little fussy so we took a petting break and went to the drive through section of the park.
So proud to be in the front seat!
We saw zebras, hippos, camels, emus, lions, tigers, alligators, bears...to name a few!
After the drive through, we folded the seats down and had lunch in the back of the van. We got a new car and Charlie's favorite thing now is climbing all over it. Most expensive toy we'll ever buy :)
After lunch we went back to the petting area to see the rest of the animals...

Our last stop was to see the monkeys. I was stressed out with monkeys flying and jumping everywhere but Charlie and daddy had a great time!
"Chloe" (the monkey, not my sister...love you Chlo) jumped on me and was able to snatch the camera card without me noticing! Luckily we got it back!
We had so much fun! Charlie was exhausted by the time we left. Half a mile down the road and he was out...

This is a CRAZy place!
I can't believe how close you are to these animals?!
Charlie is so funny- he looks like he isn't sure he should be happy or frightened his parents are letting a wild monkey jump all over them ;)
So stinking cute though.
I love that you had a picnic in the new car- great idea. So fun to see charlie driving through the park & sleeping in his seat. I'm sure he loves seeing out the window. What a good boy he is.
