Spring Break

I had spring break last week and enjoyed having the time off of work. We spent the first few days running errands/shopping/playing around and enjoying a cool treat.
Check out the static cling hairdo
Then on Wednesday I dropped my car off at the mechanic as it needed some desperate TLC. Then my dad, Connor and I went to the Wild Animal Park. We had fun feeding the ducks and petting the goats. One goat gave Connor a friendly (or not) love tap. We decided to leave that goat alone and go see some nicer ones.
While walking around near the elephants we heard a large splashing noise. We walked up the ramp to check it out and were excited to see six elephants going for a swim.
Once the trainers started to leave, the elephants decided to get out of the water and follow where the people were going. They had buckets so it looked like it was lunch time.
Then we went to the butterfly exhibit. This was our main purpose for going to the park. You have to get separate tickets to enter the exhibit at a certain time (these tickets are free). We got to the park around 11:30ish and our tickets to see the butterflies were 3:15-3:45. We arrived right at 3:15 and entered the exhibit.
Connor found a friend
Connor started melting down towards the end. He was totally clueless that he had another friend on his hat.Once out of the muggy exhibit we walked by the carousel and decided Connor would have just enough juice left to ride the carousel with grandpa.
He promptly fell asleep on the way home.
