Vacation 2011 - St. Louis Zoo

I've added two more vacation posts which are after this one.

We spent a few days vacationing in Southern Missouri with Marks family this past week. We had a fun time despite extremely hot weather most of the time. Our trip started with a hotel stay in St. Louis were the kids spent lots of time in the pool and watching cartoons in the lobby. The next morning a few of us braved the heat and went to the St. Louis Zoo. I was surprised to find out the zoo is actually free to visit. They charge to park but we opted to park on a side street and walk for free. I would love to go back on a cool day with the family, Grants Farm is another free attraction in St. Louis I would enjoy going to.

The two young ones looking very hot! Anton wouldn't give up his blanket even though the heat index was over 100!

The penguin house was 45 degrees, it was a wonderful way to cool off and was Anton's favorite part.

I tried to get Ethan to kiss the cobra statue but he wasn't interested, I was lucky just to get him in a picture!

Amelia getting up close to a huge hippo.

Elijah's favorite animals were the elephants.

Three hot little boys shedding clothes.

Hey you girls aren't babies! Poor Karl had a heavy load!
