A Day at the Zoo

 Yesterday we went to the Point Defiance Zoo in Tacoma with Margaret, Christy, Robert, Matt, and Lylia. It was so much fun. Paige loved it and I always love going to the zoo.

Our first stop was the aquarium
 The shark tank
 The shark gliding past us
 Then we got there at the right time to be able to pet the little sting ray and sharks. It was pretty amazing and something I may never get to do again. The sting ray were slimy and smooth and the sharks felt like lizards. Paige would not do it but she had fun watching me.
 The cute seahorses- we all thought the seahorses were pregnant because they had big bellies but then we read the sign and they were potbelly seahorses.
Then we walked around the rest of the zoo.
We loved watching the walrus and the sea lions and otters. The walrus and sea lions would do the same patterns and the walrus would come right up to the glass. Lylia was having a conversation with the otter and he would squeak back to her.
The last stop was the goat/petting area. I got some goat feed and let Paige feed the goats. I wasn't sure if she would do it but Lylia did it first and then Paige immediately did it afterwards and thought it was pretty cool.
Margaret and Christy admiring their long legs.
We went to the Washington History Museum and the Museum of Glass which are both in Tacoma and also free yesterday. It was fun to walk around and see everything.
