So part three of Logan's birthday extravaganza continues with a two day trip to Albuquerque (about 2 hours east of us).
The first day we went to the park and had lunch, it was so sunny and warm! Then we walked over to Explora. If you never gone, check it out! It's really cool. But apparently we weren't the only ones who thought it was a good idea to go there, half of Albuquerque was there too! But we had fun exploring and playing out side on the playground and the sand boxes.
Later we checked in to the hotel and daddy and Connor went swimming. Poor Logan, the birthday boy, had a fever so he and mommy hung out in the hotel room snuggling and napping. For dinner Aunt Coco brought us Olive Garden for dinner which may or may not have ended up all over the bed thanks to clumsy dad. :o) Sorry maids!
The next day we got up bright and early, bundled up and headed to the Rio Grande Zoo. Connor loved the Elephants, the lions, and the gorillas, who were very fiesty and were fighting. Logan was a little afraid of the seals, who came right up to us to say hello.
Then we went to the botanical gardens and aquarium where we met Oma Tamminga. We had fun feeding the koi fish at the japanese gardens, eating lunch in the grass, seeing the sharks, eels and sting rays. Logan was very interested in the sting rays and could have sat looking at them forever.
