Zoo Atlanta

Well we are back from our weekend trip to Atlanta.  I am going to break this up into a few different post because I have lots of pictures.  We started our trip Friday about 10:30 and headed to Anderson.  We decided to stop for lunch before we hit the interstate.  We went to Pizza Hut and it was yummy!  Good choice..Marcie!
                         
Then, we were off to Atlanta.  They slept most of the way down there and watch Finding Nemo the rest of the way.  We got to the zoo about 3:00.  Here are some of our pictures from the Zoo.  
                                      

Our first stop...the flamingos!  Our attempt at a family photo but Emma wasn't too interested!

I have to admit...the back packs came in HANDY!!

Feeding the flamingo's!

Evan getting some food for the flamingo's!
Elephants!

Wart Hog...what an ugly creature!
 Rhinoceros! 
 Giraffe & Ostrich's!
 Zebra!
 Me with my blue eyed sweeties!
 Another giraffe!
 The Lion sleeping
 And her cubs wrestling with each other!
 Emma didn't quite get the concept of just putting your head in the circle!
 Evan did!!
 The mama gorilla and her baby!
 Bears!
 Panda's!
 Tigers!
Kangaroos!
Evan loved every minute of this trip!  Emma was over it after a while but she still did good!  We left about 5:00 and headed to check in the hotel.  A girl at work is from Atlanta and she suggested we stay at Perimeter Mall.  It is right outside Atlanta but is a very nice area or at least that is what she said!  When we first arrived I was a little scared of where we had chosen to stay.  The inside of the hotel was a much different story!  It was much nicer than the outside would suggest!  We then went out for supper and back to the hotel.  We decided to swim in the pool.  I saw on their website they had a heated pool so we packed our bathing suits.  It was a lot of fun and Emma is still saying she wants to go swimming again!!
             
The only picture Evan would let me take of him in his swim suit!  Then, we headed back for baths and to work a puzzle!  We had to do something to wind down after the swimming!    
                 

Then we headed to bed and rested up for the aquarium!  We had a good first day!  I'll be back for the Aquarium update soon!!
