Adventure in a Biopark!!!!

Heyy everyone! We went on a GREAT adventure and took a look inside God's marvelous creation!! Going to the Albuquerque bio park was TONS of fun (and a good workout!!).

Our journey consisted of The Chocolate Milk Cow, The Lone Chicken, The Praying Goat, and an adventure in Wonderland! We went to the train station after seeing what one animal in the zoo was like (don't worry, we went back) and headed to the aquarium and Japanese Gardens! The aquarium is my favorite. :)  We saw eels, sharks (even a smiling one!), rays, jellyfish (too cool!) and Dory!

Next was the HUGE greenhouse! It was a lil warm in there but cool. The tropical greenhouse proved to be full of plants and flowers that my sisters were more than happy to take pics of. Oh wait! I forgot to mention the adventure in Wonderland! We entered this big castle (and passed a big dragon) and once we entered all the stuff in there made us feel kinda small. The maze kinda scared me because I didn't know how long it went and I hate feeling trapped in those things. lol

On the way to the Japanese Gardens we came across a charming farm! This is where we came across The Praying Goat. He had his foot on the board and had his foot rested on it. :) We saw The Lone Chicken on our way into the barn (we figured out later he had friends). Inside the barn we found a brown calf and proclaimed it The Chocolate Milk Cow.

Finally getting to the Japanese Gardens we were impressed. A pretty big waterfall connecting to a lake was mom's favorite. We took a lot of pics here. :) Coming back to the zoo we saw monkeys grooming each other, a male lion sitting on the rock like he knew he was the king, and a polar bear that was a lil unsure of how to jump off his rock. 

Our day was pretty great! Things like this reminds me how great homeschooling really is and how great God really is too. :)
