Brian's friend Drew invited us to go with him and Melissa to the Wildlife Sanctuary in Keenesburg. We have been there before but it was a long time ago and they added on to the facility. It was a little warm but there was a breeze so it wasn't too bad.
We rented this wagon for Brooks. Thought he might like it better than his stroller and he seemed to enjoy it. I couldn't find his other sunglasses so we had to go with the girly ones I had lying around the house.
The beginning our journey....
Lions rescued from Bolivia. As you can see they were crashed out
Brian thought this spider was cool so I took a picture. It isn't a rescued spider!
Look down there it's a LION! Roar!!!!
Wolves
Lynx
The tiger came out to see what was going on with the Lynx. Some of the workers were driving around in a gator-must have thought it was dinner time!
Back in the wagon on our return journey. They had catwalks that went over all the exhibits and once you hit the end you had to turn around and go back the same way. Brooks was more excited about seeing the pools of water they had for the animals(no animals were in the water though). We did let him walk along the cat walk and he was super fired up about that-so much so that a couple people made jokes about him needing his own exhibit-he wasn't too quiet! Most of the animals were sleeping so not much action for Brooks to see.
He was getting sleepy towards the end-he is on his hands and knees then would burying his face in his blanket then pop back up to check things out. He was a trooper and hung on until we got to the car-then he crashed for the ride home.
