We had a great time walking around looking at everything. When the cashier at the zoo found out it was Sam's birthday, she gave him a special key that he could use at certain exhibits to find out additional information about the animals. Sam loves keys -- so he was excited. He was not so much excited about more information -- just the fact that he could use the key and turn something on. He especially like to turn on the Spanish version -- he thinks he knows Spanish because he can count to ten.
We rode on the zoo train that took us on a loop to the Portland Rose Garden and then back to the zoo. Then it was time for lunch and the raptors show. Those birds flew so low we had to duck -- and we were already sitting down! A quick trip back to the polar bears to watch them swimming and then it was time to head home.
A little quiet time, a trip to the park, a birthday dinner and baths rounded out our busy day.
Happy Birthday, Sam!
