On our road trip back home from the lake we stopped in St. Louis for a couple days.
We stopped for a cool treat on our way into town.
Next, we headed to Daddy's old high school. Our favorite part was running around in this field chasing the bunnies.
We woke up bright and early and headed to the zoo. It is a fantastic zoo! Here I am waving at an ape in the primate house.
We were very excited to the giraffes!
A really up close wave!
In the penguin house
The brown bear ran out of the picture at the last minute. Silly bear!
Daddy took us on a train ride around the zoo.
Our last stop was the new sea loin exhibit.
In the underwater tunnel- the sea loins swam all around us!
Snuggle time with Aunt Diane. We loved staying at her house and playing with Sabrina, her puppy. We had a great visit! After nap we headed to a local water park.
Exploring the zero entry pool and splash pad
Daddy and Sister staying cool in the shade
There was an indoor lap pool, giant hot tub and two more zero entry areas!
Sister loved the water!
But the best part of the indoor attractions was this water slide (look out the window to see the slide). Mommy and Daddy were shocked when I asked to please go on it...by myself! It was so much fun!
So much fun that I went on it a second time! This time I got flipped onto my tummy, but still came up smiling!
I gave this slide a big thumbs up! Behind me you can see the spiral staircase to the top of the slide. The tube takes you outside, spirals around a bunch and then end back inside! The part you come out is right behind Daddy.
There was also a lazy river...
and a pool that was perfect for toddlers and parents to play!
We spent the rest of our time at the water park playing on these water slides. We want a place like this near our house!
Look closely at Brother's face in this one!
Time to head out. Thank you to Aunt Diane for a wonderful visit! We can't wait to go back to the lake and St. Louis next year!
