On Friday Adam took the day off and we took our first day trip to the Columbia zoo. We left around 8 am (it is about 1.5 hours away) with Caleigh and Andrew and tons of stuff. We had a great time. Caleigh really enjoyed seeing all the animals and did a lot of pointing and talking.
One thing that was funny to us was how scared of the animals she was. At one point we were standing with her near where you can feed the giraffes and as one of the giraffes leaned its head in Caleigh started saying, "no, no, no, no, no" followed by crying. She did the same thing when the elephant started walking towards us.
Caleigh really liked the chickens and the rabbits (probably because they were the only animals we saw that were smaller than she was).
She was also a big fan of the birds. We had a really good time and even though the temperature was 95, it really didn't feel that hot. Andrew did great and slept most of the time. Caleigh napped in the car on the way home for 45 minutes which was not a good thing (would have been good if it was longer). Once we got home there was crying by her and Andrew from 3 until 9 pm - so we really paid for making the trip. But overall it was a fun memory making experience.
