a walk on the wild-side...

While we were down at Cocoa Beach this weekend, we traveled over to the Brevard Zoo. It was great!! We will definitely be coming back here. We fed Giraffes which was amazing!! You really don't know how big these animals are until you are feeding them and petting their heads. The boys got to touch about a dozen gross lizards, and snakes. The zoo even has a inside play place that the kids were able to dig for bones in the sand, and pretend to be zoo keepers. A perfect zoo day except for the birds. We thought that it would be fun for the boys to feed birds, and fun it was not!! The zoo gives you small cups filled with nectar and then sends you in the bird area and forgets to tell you that you will be swarmed with crazy,starving, birds! It was definitely not my favorite moment of the day! The boys handled it as well as they could but it was a bit overwhelming. Next time we will be skipping that experience. Besides that encounter it was a great day exploring nature and learning new things.









It was not funny actually I hated this!!
