If I get pictures from Chris's brother David of the trip I will try to post them because he took lots. But my camera battery died on the 2nd day of our trip. I did want to say that the trip was better than we had expected. Chris and I have gone on some trips with the kids where they just whine and don't listen and it's just horrible, so we decided to expect the worst for this trip. But the kids were great!! They were good on the airplane rides and at the airports. And for the most part they enjoyed the trip as much as we did- getting to go ride in and Aerial Tram at night (I am afraid of heights so this was great cuz I could see the beautiful city lights but not really how far down it was!!!) We also got to go swimming at least half of the days. Oh and they had a really cool kiddie pool that was only 1 foot deep. So as you can imagine that is where Chloe spent most of her time. Crab walking on her tummy and back and splashing and playing with other kids. Caleb on the other hand pretty much only wanted to go down the slide with daddy.
We also got to visit Patti's uncle Francie. We met up with him at a airfield and got to see a plane that he and his friends had been building for the last 8 years. It wasn't ready to fly just yet, but we got to see other planes practicing their landing and take offs. The kids loved it.
Oh and Chris and I had a date night!!! It's been a while. We went to a movie and then dinner. We need to do that more often. At least once a month would be nice!!
Oh and the place with the animals is the Living Desert. It was really neat. We got to see a baby Giraffe with Ostrichs, Camels, pet goats and sheep, and see all kinds of neat "cats". Small and large.
This is a family of Raccoons that hangs out around all of the garbage cans at the Aerial Tram. They got really close, maybe just a couple feet away.
