| Justin's 1st Trip to the Zoo |
|
Wednesday, April 9th Jeremy took off from work and the three of us went downtown to the Greenville Zoo. I knew where it was because I had seen the sign before, but I never would of guessed they had a zoo that size in downtown Greenville. It wasn't huge, but a pretty good size for a place like Greenville. They had a good variety of animals there including my favorites - the ginormous African elephants, giraffes, turtles that Justin could probably ride, a 1 year old gorilla (so cute), and the coolest looking Squirrel Monkeys (I wanted to take one home with me so bad).
I think Justin's favorite animals were the Lion and Gorilla and maybe the monkeys but I could tell he liked seeing them all. Can't you see the smile on his face as he looks at the monkeys?
It was the coolest zoo because it was probably 3/4ths shade and usually right infront of the cages which we were thankful for since it was quite hot that day. We went at the perfect time too because there were very few people there. They even had a small toddler play area. At the end of the zoo they had a couple of farm animals you could pet. They had a few goats, a pig, and some chickens. Justin got to pet the goat and watch someone feed them bread. He wasn't scared by the goats, but wasn't quite sure what to think about them licking his hand. I got to pet the pig.....yuck...I had no idea their hair was so wire like. It was weird.
Then, after we were done at the zoo, we went to Jimmy John's (freaky fast, freaky good subs) for dinner. Very good subs and the perfect end to our great family outing!
