Saturday morning we cleaned the church. Afterwards we decided to put our zoo pass to use and spend the day at the zoo. The zoo was having a Cinco De Mayo event so there were fun, free games and activities available. The kids had a great time in the tiger bounce house and inflatable snake maze/slide. We were able to see the Reptile house and the Ghost of the Bayou. We caught the seasonal butterfly exhibit and as part of our membership we got 4 free passes for the monorail so we went on the tour of Zoo Africa as well.
Unfortunately after 4 hours of fun our trip was cut short by a major downpour. BUT, never fear, a few days ago I had purchased some emergency rain coats for just such an experience. I love the rain and actually like walking in a warm spring rain storm, but this was more than just a rain storm. As we waded throw water up to our ankles we decided to head home a little early. Rusty decided this was a good moment to document our trip so you can see some really sad faces below.
In spite of the rain we had a great time and because we have passes a little rain is really nothing to cry about. We will go back and see the rest of the zoo on trip three.

What a fun zoo trip! I keep hearing all the things hitting TX--swine flu, the huge wind storms/rain...good thing you stocked up! We miss and love you!
Looks like you're having lots of fun. I've enjoyed seeing the fun things you're doing out there!
