Our second day in KC was spend at the zoo! It has been over 15 years since I visited the zoo and I loved all the updates. The KC Zoo is quite a bit bigger than the Denver Zoo, has a train and trams that run throughout the property, and a "Sky Ride" (a ski lift for you Colorado folks) that gives you an aerial view of some of the larger exhibits. Plus, we were able to get 50% off the price of admission by showing our Denver Zoo membership card...can't beat that!
The coolest exhibit was by far, the polar bear. He swam right up to the glass and pushed off, giving us an awesome view of his huge paws and sweet face. So, so cool.
The carousel was also a big hit...
...especially the MU Tiger!
Couldn't pass up a ride on the train!
It was all fun and games until Mimi fell down in one of the Africa exhibits. She hobbled back to civilization and I got her an ice pack for her banged-up knee. We decided that it was time to go home at that point. The 100 degree weather didn't help, either. We got Icees to go & hit the road!
