Vacation Day 5

Today we headed back to Gator Land for our second visit.  Michael and I first went on our babymoon when I was pregnant with AJ.  And now we got to bring both of our kiddos with us to share in the excitement of Florida's wildlife!

Time to wake up kiddos - Gator Land is waiting for us!

The gators joined by some big birds/

I thought this shot was so cool..that bird looks like it wants to attack!

AJ was a little apprehensive about the gators.

Apparently at GatorLand there are birds everywhere too!

And goats too.

These goats were ruthless.  They wanted to eat anything and everything they came into contact with.

We bought a few ice cream cones which held some goat food 
and AJ and Daddy let the goats go to town.

AJ loved it!



After the goats it was lunch and selfie time!

Then it was lunch time for the gators - turkey hot dogs!

AJ loved throwing the hot dogs to the gators, although the birds would sometimes intercept them!

Next up was this guy, the Emu.

AJ got to feed him too.  But he fed him corn, not ice cream cones!

And while we were taking a little rest from all the walking, this guy joined us.

Simply beautiful.

Time to fuel up!

Off to see the tortoises next!

They are such huge animals!

Chloe wasn't too impressed with the animals - she
 was more interested in the back of her eyelids.

_MG_3689
Mountain Lion - such beautiful creatures.

And a huge snake, which Mommy was most certainly glad it was behind glass!

Our night ended with a visit to Tijuana Flats (a taco place) to meet up with Mommy's college friend, Shelly and her husband, Jolyon.  It wouldn't be a complete Florida vacation without a visit with them!

The night ended like this... Like Babcia, like grandson!
