Pittsburgh trip - Pittsburgh Zoo

Two weeks ago we all drove out to Pittsburgh and spent the week visiting friends and family, and then attended our ten year college reunion at Geneva. It was a fun week, and we enjoyed having a whole week all together with Patrick.

We stayed at my Uncle Bruce and Aunt Margie's house for the week, and enjoyed spending time with them. On Monday we met my friend Erin and her kids at the Pittsburgh Zoo. We have had so much fun visiting so many zoos this summer and fall - the kids have been to the Roger Williams Park Zoo, the Denver Zoo, the Philadelphia Zoo and the Pittsburgh Zoo this year!

It was a beautiful day to go to the zoo, and cool enough that a lot of the animals were up and active! We had fantastic, close up visits with the elephants and the penguins.

The zoo also has a cool aquarium, including some large sharks. It was Elijah's favorite part!





The boys had a great time running through the shark tunnel. It felt like we had the zoo all to ourselves!

  1. I just commented to Mike yesterday that a trip to the zoo with kids would be a fun thing to do again. Haven't been in - forever. Yours looks like it was a fun trip!!
