Dallas Zoo


Wednesday we went to the zoo. There was a chance of rain, but it was the last thing on the kids' bucket list for the summer and the last day we could go.





Snakes...they are gross, but totally interesting to look at too.


We went to a show, sat down and then it started to pour...so we went and ate some lunch under the pavilion.



The rain stopped right as we were done eating so we went looking at more animals.


They found these misters...even though it was raining they still thought it was cool.






And then it started to rain...we took off for the elephants and watched them from a near by building. Dylan wasn't very pleasant so we hung out in the building and gave him some food. Interesting fact we learned. The elephants and many of the African animals at the zoo are more active in the summer rain because it cools it down. With the Dallas heat index, we are hotter then it is in Africa. That's depressing. We saw everything and then headed for home. About 20 minutes from home we looked at the roads and they were totally dry....it didn't rain in our city at all.
