Portland Zoo Field Trip

K's class went on a field trip to the Portland Zoo on June 3rd. I was able to talk her dad into going with her this time. It helped that his friend, Dan was going up with his daughter as well. M rode up in Dan's van while K rode the bus, (she begged to), they left at 8am. There were so many parents going that there were only one or two kids per parent which allowed the groups to go wherever they wanted and then meet back up with the teachers when it was time to leave. Dan had his daughter and M had our daughter and our next door neighbors daughter.

K's favorite thing is to feed the birds.
They were excited to see the new baby elephant.
The girls had a great time together exploring the zoo and the weather was gorgeous. Maggie and K got to ride home in the van with their dads so they made it back to town by 4pm, the bus didn't arrive until 5. M said he actually had a pretty good time. While he was in Portland, I got a 90K mile check up on the van, went on a bike ride with L and played at the park with friends.
