Day 5 in Michigan- Potter Park Zoo

Today we woke up and went to the Potter Park Zoo in Lansing. It was Mommy, Daddy, Grandma Karen, Aunt Shannon, Ella, Kara, Maya, and Me.
It was really cool. I got to sit in the front of a double stroller. It was neat because there was no bar in front of me like on my stroller. Maya, Kara, and even Ella at one point took turns riding behind me. Their zoo was different and had lots of different animals that our zoo doesn't have.
I got to pet the goats. They felt funny but were kind of like dogs.
Here I am with Ella in a kangaroo cutout.
Grandma Karen gave me a good view of the prairie dogs.
We feed the ducks at this lake.
I rode the camel with Ella and Kara.
Now I've ridden an elephant and a camel.

I didn't understand and kept trying to eat the pellet at first. I eventually figured out I was supposed to feed the llama. It tickled when he ate out of my hand.

Daddy and Ella monkeying around.

After the zoo Grandma Karen took us to the mall to go shopping for some Michigan t-shirts. Daddy has really been wanting one and he even found one for me and Mommy. After the mall we went to Jill "Beanie" Graves house. She was an ex-girlfriend of Papa Ferry's and Brian has remained in contact.
I thought it was so funny to hang from her porch rafters.
Later we went over to Papa and Grammy Ferry's house to visit. They have a big empty basement with lots of room to play. There was a big box that Daddy and I got played in.

Ring Around the Papa
Daddy and Papa wrestled. Can you tell who one? It was a Sunday though and that's beat your dad day in the Ferry household.
Grammy and I just watched and laughed as Papa and Daddy goofed around. Grandma Karen, Grammy and Papa Ferry, Dad, Mom and I all went out to dinner at Texas Roadhouse. By the time we were back at Aunt Shannon's I was pooped.
Of course a little nap is all I need and I can manage a little longer.
Papa, Daddy and Me
