Max observed everything closely from the comfort of his stroller. He only arched his back and screamed to get out 1/2 to 3/4 of the time...
Liam checks out the ciclid fish tank.
Max escaped his stroller occasionally...
But it was nice and shady in there, so he'd always settle back in. Here he checks out the grizzly bears.
Liam liked the grizzly bears, too, but also became fixated on a spider web nearby just as the bears started wrestling. Everyone watching was pointing out the bears and Liam said, "Hey, mom, look at that cool spider web!" What a goof. He got to make one wax figurine as a souvenir and he picked a white polar bear. He was pretty excited to watch the bear being molded. Aaron and I both remember the wax figurines from our childhood, so it was fun to get one for Liam.
The boys both held up very well despite the heat and lots of walking.
Liam eventually rode in the stroller with Max to rest his feet.
And then daddy brought both tired out boys back to the car. Such a long, fun day!
Yay wax figurines!!! I was talking to Carrie about them awhile ago and was stunned to hear that they're not at every zoo--I just assumed they were everywhere! Also, I'm pretty sure the polar bear was the one I picked when my parents finally broke down and said I could pick one when I was little. :)
