Finally we get to go back to the zoo

 When you are used to going to the zoo every week and can't go for 2 months, it feels like FOREVER when you can go back. There are some restrictions and things closed, but it was SO nice to get away for a couple of hours. We have never gone right in the middle of the afternoon.

 Wearing masks takes getting used to.

 We splurged and got dippin dots and popcorn and I was declared the coolest mom ever. Sometimes I am the coolest mom. Usually I have had to be mean mom.

 Adeline loved her popcorn.

 They fixed the elephant weight machine! It's actually really nice to go to the zoo in warmer weather with so few people. There are arrows so you can only go one way, but it's a little different than we normally do so it's nice.

 Adeline was sad to see her best otter friend closed :( for a hug.

 I can tell my kids have gotten slightly "lazy" during quarantine. They were pretty exhausted after a couple hours or so. Even with snacks and lots of rests. We have to work up our energy levels for outside time apparently.

Love the peacock feathers! Reminded me of Liam getting lost when he was 2 because we stopped to see a peacock displaying his feathers. No one lost this time. Yeah! We will be back next week zoo!
