Phoenix and friends

Saturday morning after breakfast, we drove to meet friends at the World Wildlife Zoo . They are a homeschooling family we used to spend a lot of time with. They moved to Phoenix last fall so it was really nice to see them again.






Feeding the giraffes was a fun treat:







This zoo has a lot of reptiles and very colorful birds:














Also, a petting zoo where the goats kept trying to eat everyone's clothing.








We went to lunch afterwards with our friends and then said goodbye. We spent a little time back at the hotel, letting the kids swim. The pool was outside and heated so it felt wonderful. Zane kept pointing way up to the tops of the palm trees. He seemed fascinated by them.








For dinner, we headed down to a fun little area called Old Town Tempe. It reminded us a bit of downtown Denver. We walked around seeing the sights and had a great dinner.

I'm with Zane. I think the palm trees, along with the distant mountains, the cactus...it all has a Dr Seuss type feel!
