Omaha Zoo

We had a family day on Saturday and we heard how AWESOME the Omaha Zoo was so we made the trip to Omaha. I don't know if we expected more because of all the talk but we weren't overly impressed. Maybe we had too high of expectations...but we had fun anyway.

The monkeys were no where to be found, we did see some gorillas. The exhibits seemed spread way out and all the animals were sleeping or just laying around, maybe we were there during animal nap time. Don't get me wrong, we still had fun, it just wasn't what we expected.



Eating a packed lunch before going into the zoo


Butterfly Gardens




Some bird that had Drew's attention




This was a statue. not real, at first I thought it was real.




Ride on Daddy's shoulders




all that walking makes a little boy thirsty!




Where's the tiger? I want to see the tiger!




Umm...cutest little lion at the zoo!

How tall is Drew??




This tall!




We got a little hungry so we got some popcorn.
I am not kidding, Drew ate over half.




A good day overall = 2 sleepy boys.
