Did you know that Tucson has a zoo? I sure didn't. Yesterday Joey had work off (every other Friday off!) and we took a tour. The Reid Park Zoo is a relatively small zoo (small zoo = good). All of the cages and enclosures are clean and very nice for the animals and all of the pathways are thought out and shady. It took us around two hours to see everything but we could have stayed longer. I forgot the camera so here is a picture of the map.
Isabel drew this picture of the Mona Lisa. I guess that I told her before that there are guards that stand watch and a glass case around the painting because it is so valuable. I love the cute guard and the velvet rope.
Yesterday we visited the Tucson Botanical Gardens. It was supposed to be Homeschoolers Day, but it was Veterans Day, so all of the schools were out...lame.
Here is Luke next to some Venus Fly Traps.
I have SO many pictures of Isabel posing. She wanted me to take pictures of her the whole time...what a poser.
Sylvia is saying "Only one more picture, mom."
This was inside the greenhouse with all of the butterflies.
This guy was huge.
There was a long line to get in to see the butterflies and none of us wanted to stay and wait, except for Sylvia. Seeing how happy Sylvia was in the butterfly house was definitely worth the ridiculously long wait in line.
