Jacksonville Zoo.

I know we have all been to the Zoo and most zoos have the same basic attractions so I'm just going to hit the highlights... The Jacksonville zoo is beautiful! I loved the layout too. They have one main path and exhibits on each side so you can go down one side and up the other and not have any backtracking, or as we did, you can zig zag all the way down and ride the train back at the end of the day. It was a lot of fun, but it did take us 5 hours. We were literally there all day!

We just had to feed/pet the sting rays. (mommmy excluded).

Ethan's favorite exhibit. "Look its a people"! he says... (she was painting a new habitat.)

The boys got to feed the giraffe that was a new experience...

This is a live turtle with little lily pad type flowers growing on its back.

Elephant, ooh ahh!

This was fun...

He looks real in this picture... Don't ya think?

All in all we only missed 2 exhibits and that was because we took such a long break for lunch and almost got kicked out for closing. We almost missed the last train back to the entrance.
