I remembered from the last trip to the zoo that there was a place to feed the giraffes. I thought I remembered it being $2 a person & asked the boys if they wanted to try it..they thought it was a cool idea. Unfortunately, my memory was off on the price & it was twice as expensive but we went ahead. Here are some pictures from the day!
We found out (some of already knew) that giraffes have very long tongues. I didn't know that they are dark colored to keep from getting sunburned. They spend so much time eating & their tongues are out of their mouths that if their tongues were pink like ours they would get sunburned.
Here is Zach pretending to be a giraffe and seeing how far he can stick his tongue out.
Here are a few other pictures from the day:

Where are Nate and Josh sitting?
Who gave you the food for the giraffe?
What green plant did you feed the giraffe?
Zoo keeper gave us the branches with leaves because we gave him $$$. Not sure exactly what kind they were.
Nate and Josh are sitting in part of the penguin exhibit...it is suppose to look like a real penguin den (there is a nest inside also).
