The Oakland Zoo and Kiddy Rides


Justin had Thursday off so we decided to go to the zoo. It was a gorgeous day. It was probably 75 degrees outside. (ha ha) When we get there we see that adjacent to the zoo is a kiddy carnival ride area. We got the membership to the zoo and you get 6 free tickets for rides. Justin and Danny rode the Tiger Roller Coaster. Danny loved it!!



He had his choice of several rides including a carousel and he chose the cars. He had a lot of fun going around in a circle. Doesn't this just bring back memories from when we were kids?


Next, we had to buy more tickets, $1.00 each, so we could all ride the train. It went around the zoo. We saw the bear and a bunch of pretend animals. This was the highlight of the ride. Mostly we saw shrubs and bamboo. What a waste of $2 each.


Every time we would go to Amy's house Danny would get excited when he saw the gates. I don't know why that is but he would throw in the phrase Musical Roller Coaster too. He really could have cared less about having his picture taken with the gate.



Next, we were on to the children's zoo. Justin and Daniel are sitting on a giant snake.
