Columbus

On Friday we went on a road trip to Columbus. We had never ventured that way before, so we were excited to check it out. Our main reason to go, was Family Temple Day for our ward. Our primary was so great to plan an activity at the meetinghouse across the parking lot so our children would be entertained while we, as adults, visited the Temple. It was about a 2 hour drive to get there, so not to bad. We had a lovely time there, and enjoyed ourselves. Here is the ward members that went with us. We thought since we were already in Columbus, we would visit the Zoo. The Columbus Zoo has a great reputation, and we decided to check them out! It wasn't very busy and we were able to see almost everything. The kids enjoyed the close encounter sections, and riding on the boat!

Carson enjoyed looking at the pheasants, and the flamingos were very pretty! They were feeding the rhinos when we happened by. They pick everything up with their lips! This silver-backed gorilla was cruising around protecting his herd. He was very large!

This Komodo Dragon was trying to smell us with his tounge. We had fun, and hopefully we can return sometime with our kids.
