I am sorry that it has been a little while since I posted last but I have been busy.

These two are why I was busy on Monday! My wife and I took my sister and the little to the zoo. They have just went on spring break and we wanted to take them some where that was fun and kinda a adventure. They were surprised because all we told them was that we were going somewhere and it was a surprise. It took a little while to get there so making them more and more curious. But when we arrived, they seemed excited.

We first went to see the butterflies. They were all over the place. Reading and looking at the different types of butterflies plus the fish.

While in this very warm environment we also stumbled opon some beautiful flowers.20180402_111921.jpg
This trip was not only for fun but it was also educational. Even if that wasn't intentional it still was a bonus.20180402_111856.jpg
After that we went to see the Ocean Animal. The girls were very happy with this one because they had fish like the stingrays 20180402_113104.jpg
There were sharks and other fish along with the stingrays.20180402_113313.jpg20180402_113059.jpg

The farther we moved into this habitat the more we were surprised like when we rounded the corner and we found the penguins.

We would eventually come to a part of this habitat where we would be able to pet small sharks. They were dog sharks so they were not any danger. The girls and myself were arms deep trying to pet these cuties. The girls got a fin touch but the little bugers move very quickly.

This is one of the sea lions, this one was rescued.

We would visit many habitats, and because I am easily distracted and a big kid at heart, I didn't get as many pictures as I would have liked but some that I did get were of snakes and the many types.

This one being my favorite but also one of the most venemos.20180402_122447.jpg
Those are just some of the many snakes that we would see. We also would see a lizard that if its tail was to hit me I'd probably cry.

Also in that same habitat we would see some very cool meerkats. 20180402_121828.jpg they were very chill and they were like posing for the cameras. Then my little buddy came and sat right where I was standing at the glass.20180402_121819.jpg
We would also see humping tortoises. This was humerious for my wife and I but the girls just thought they were playing. Don't worry no pictures of this event.
After that warm environment, the girls would go for a carousel ride.

We would then go eat lunch and listen to the dog show. But after lunch the real big surprise was going to happen.

We would be going to the DOLPHIN SHOW!! We would wait until about fifteen minutes before show starts to tell them we are going to see the dolphins. They were excited. We go in and get sat down and wait for it to start.

The show would be a hit! The girls including my wife would be zoned in for the thirty minutes of the show. Watching flips and tricks would get them all excited.
But the show has to end and we must go to the play ground, as the girls would tell me. We head to the little park that they have, we would have to go for some extra fun.

To end our trip we go to the girft shop and pick out a prize to remember our trip. They are girls, so, its a necklace because they are beautiful as they tell me.

This trip was a blast and we can not wait to take them again. They enjoyed it and I think we enjoyed it just as much. It makes me happy that we can take them out and have fun. They are great kids and they deserve to have some fun. Especially when they are on break. We will be going again and we will have as much or more fun.

As always please upvote and follow. This month will be a big one because the little is going with fathers mother to wedding out of state, the littles birthday and my little sisters birthday. So busy busy!! But I will try to post as much as possible.
