Turtles and More

It took a while, but we were finally able to plan a trip with our friends!  We decided to go to Toledo since it is so close to us and since we went to the art museum last time we went to Toledo together, we decided to go to the zoo this time.  This was the second time Joe and I had been to the zoo.  The first time was about 7 years ago.  I remember not being crazy about it then, but thought it was definitely fine.  I remember that the day we were there it rained so the only pictures I took were with a cell phone.  Anyways, these past 7 years, Joe and I have continued to travel to zoos around us and therefore had more to compare Toledo to.  Unfortunately, we felt that Toledo hasn't improved at all in the past 7 years and since it was only fine before, we realized it just doesn't hold up compared to other zoos.  It is very poorly labeled to the extent that the map was fairly useless and even regulars there weren't much help for us.  Anyways, it was awesome to go on a road trip with our friends and we still had a great trip.  I also got a lot of awesome pictures this time so without further ado, here they are!  😊

Birds

 This is the last post I have of pictures from the Columbus Zoo.  I am SO glad we went!  We had a WONDERFUL time with BEAUTIFUL weather!  I'm also happy that I have so many wonderful pictures to remind me of all the animals we saw.  😊

Random

 I'm almost done with the pictures from our trip to the Columbus Zoo, so I'm dumping all the random ones together that I didn't know how to categorize.  I don't think this was my first time seeing an Okapi, but I was still surprised by it.  It definitely just such a unique animal!

Mandrills

When we got to where these Mandrills were, no one else was around, so we were able to stay and watch them for a while.  I couldn't get over how unique and colorful they are!  They are beautiful creatures!
