On the road again...

Our next leg of the trip after Dad's was on to Madison, Wisconsin.  Eric was out there for his dad's surgery so we went to visit and see the town.  It really IS a cool town.  I am surprised that with all of the high school friends I had that went to the University of Wisconsin, I had never been there.  Our first stop was the zoo.  They have a free zoo there so we thought, why not?

Dad is measuring up against the primates arm length... even the smallest chimp has longer arms than he does.

This was fun watching the giraffes reaching for the branches with their creepy long tongues!

I think camels are the mangiest looking animals, not really sure why I am putting this photo in...

Lauren, the scary baby polar bear.

Elise the happy baby polar bear

This grizzly bear was so fun to watch.  He was hangin' out in the pool then just toodled around.  i love bears, they are so cool.

Check out the claws on this guy!

This was a play area for the kids and it was insane in there, Elise wouldn't even go in.  Of course Lauren did for a few minutes.
