We became official "Friends of the Zoo" for the first time this weekend. The new tax that was passed makes the memberships, and daily admissions, for Clay and Jackson county residents super cheap. We bought the membership that has unlimited train/tram/carousel rides. WORTH EVERY PENNY. It was a super hot day and just riding the train around for 10 minutes gave our legs a break and blew a nice breeze across our sweaty selves. The tram ride was priceless as the walk to and from Africa feels realistic! Jane rode the carousel THREE times because she kept finding different animals that she just had to ride on. Kate rode it twice. That adventure alone would have cost us $15....well, actually no it wouldn't have, because we would have never let them ride it that many times! We played at the zoo for over four hours and the girls had a great time. As you can see below, Jane even got up close and personal with Nikita the polar bear, giving him a "high five" every time he swam by and pushed off for the his lap around the pool. That bear was an entertainer.
