I went to Jungle Island (fka Monkey Jungle) with Tori, mom, my sister and Shawna, my aunt, 2 cousins, and my cousin's 2 year old son. Who knew that 3 hours at the "zoo" would be so exhausting?!?! They shut down the bird show early and ushered us under cover due to a tornado watch in the area. It seemed like the perfect time to eat, so we took advantage. We did catch the tiger show, though, which was great. Tori is just WAY too young to enjoy any of this. She had zero interest in anything...monkeys, the petting zoo, birds, tigers, nothing. (And as a side note, Jungle Island is probably not worth the $30 for adults, $24 for children that they charge to get in, plus $7 for parking.)
We did get some quality time with my cousins and aunt, though, so all was worth it. And the good news is, since Min didn't want to go, he's in charge of Tori tonight. I'm so playing that card!
Here are a few pictures from today. Strangely, not a single picture has Tori in it.
Totally understand about the zoo not being worth it until the kids are ready to enjoy it.
