Today Noomi and I chaperoned Ajax’s class trip to Potter Park Zoo! We were up early and had an excellent breakfast of baked oatmeal with raspberries. We then sent Ajax off to school on the bus and then Noomi and headed over to the zoo. We got there a little early so I let Noomi play on the playscape till all the kiddos arrived.
We were paired with another little boy, Dylan, and his grandmother who was with him that day. The kids ran nonstop from exhibit to exhibit. They loved the lions and tigers and otters. Yes, the otters were quite entertaining and playful. Everyone was very well behaved, but it still felt like we were herding cats, lol.
After our tour of the zoo I checked Ajax out, but we ended up wandering over to the playground again where the kids played with some other kids from his class. Today must have been the day that all the schools in the county were visiting the zoo because there were hoards of kids and buses and teachers with whistles. After an hour of playing I rounded up the kids and we went grocery shopping before heading home. Overall, an excellent day.
I didn’t take many pictures as the kids kept me too busy!
