The Atlanta Zoo!!

Daddy had the week off last week so we went to Atlanta for two days to take Gracie Leigh to the Zoo, Braves Game and Aquarium! She had the best time- and why not...it was all about her!:) It is all she talks about since we have gotten back! The zoo was alot of fun and someplace she had never been! Daddy showed her some pictures online the night before of the "pink birds" flamingos, panda bears, etc. and she was thrilled! We spent Thursdays morning and into the afternoon there. We were able to take a picnic lunch and that was fun! They had a train and she loved riding that and they also had a carousel that she loved riding too! We rode each of those twice! Here are a few pictures from our zoo trip. I didn't post them all but did post alot of the good ones!:) Enjoy!

Ready to go...

First stop...the "pink birds" and she wanted to go and see them about three more times after that!:)

Checking out the giraffe with daddy!
Hanging with the lions!:)
The lions weren't active at first but then you could hear them roar through the park and everyone came back to see them! They were neat!
Sitting in front of the monkey viewing window!
This is all she wanted to do in the reptile room- walk on the benches like balance beams. Can't say I really blame her though!:)
All smiles checking out the baby panda!


Daddy Panda Bear!
The large elephants that she wasn't that interested in- go figure?:)
She did want a picture with them in the background though!
First train ride! So excited!

The conductor let us sit in his seat for a picture on our second ride. G didn't want to sit by herself!Riding the carousel with mommy!

Waving to daddy!Daddy's turn!

At the petting zoo...she was excited for just a minute and then it passed!

They had this great little park and G loved pretending to drive the school bus! She is obsessed with school buses so this was a treat!:)

More pics from the Braves game and Aquarium coming soon!
