Zoo-landers

On Sunday we took a bit of a road trip and went to the Detroit Zoo. After getting stuck in perhaps THE slowest customs line EVER, we finally were off and managed to get there in just over an hour.

It's a great zoo, and is very walkable which is great for the kids. The exhibits are pretty wide open so you get a good view of the animals when they decide to cooperate. (the polar bears were too busy eating to swim over the tunnel!)

The kids loved it too, as they got a kick out of seeing the animals (they especially liked watching the penguins being fed), and then they got a chance to play, play, play on the fantastic playground they have in the zoo. It was a gorgeous day - I even got sunburned on my arms!! We ended up buying a membership, so we'll definitely be heading back again.

Here are some pictures from the day:
