Since we cleaned the garage yesterday, we took the day off and headed to the Toledo Zoo. We met our friends David & Suzanne there. (They also adopted from Guatemala - twin girls in December 2004). The day was absolutely gorgeous, with not a cloud in the sky, and 80 degree weather. We first went to the Arctic encounter. Ethan enjoyed watching the "focas" (seals) swim. We then headed to the Africa exhibit. This was the favorite spot for the kids because they got to ride the merry go round and train.
Next, we had lunch and then headed to Ethan's second favorite place- the aquarium. Steve loves teaching Ethan about all the different fish - especially the ones he hopes they will catch together someday. As they walked through the aquarium, Ethan would shout out the names of the fish.
We stayed at the aquarium for about an hour before moving on to the hippos and elephants. This area is under renovation so some of the animals weren't available for viewing. I guess we'll just have to come back again. With the fun we had today and the warm weather hopefully here to stay we know we will be making many trips back this summer.
