We're going to the Dallas Zoo

At the entrance of the Dallas Zoo, there is this highly annoying, yet catchy song that plays on an endless loop.  "We're going to the Dallas Zoo..." over and over and over again.  When you do go to the Dallas Zoo, hope for no lines at the front entrance.  The Dallas Zoo has half price tickets for Houston Zoo members, but even better, admission was only $5 for penguin days.

Finley pleaded to go on the carousel and we  caved.  She actually loved it and wanted to go again right away!

Feeding the giraffes. This was so much fun! Whenever we have tried to feed them at the Houston Zoo, the stand has been closed. I cannot wait to do it again.

Brave little girl! I wouldn't have been caught dead in the reptile house. Just thinking about it gives me chills.

Ahhh...see! She's a terrapin at heart! Go, Finley. Fear the turtle!
