DinoTrek

We met Suzy and all her kiddos at the zoo yesterday.  Since neither of us had done it yet, we decided to do the DinoTrek.


A similar exhibit was at the zoo last summer as well but we'd been cheap so far and always skipped it (it's $3 per person).  I think there are 15 animated dinosaurs (two even spit water) along a wooded trail.

There was one at the beginning the kids could climb on.  Notice how wet my kids hair is?  We played at the playground for about 1 1/2 hours before doing the DinoTrek and it was HOT.  They were completely soaked through.  Here is Riley, Chase, Carter, and Rylan ...


I told the kids to make scared faces :)


This one eating a fish was one of my favorites.


The kids stayed by each dinosaur for a few seconds before moving on.  I kept telling them to slow down and actually look at the dinosaurs - it's not like it was free :)  Hutch (who is 2 1/2) was the only one to take his time!

We finally slowed them down at the very last dinosaur and got a group picture with the t-rex.



I think we spent a total of 4 hours at the zoo yesterday.  It wore us out!!!
