Omaha Zoo trip

Over the weekend we took a road trip to the Omaha, Nebraska Zoo. I had heard that it was a awesome zoo so we decided to take the boys for the weekend. We stayed at a motel by the zoo and Cody had lots of fun jumping on the beds and swimming the night before the zoo. The zoo was really impressive. It had a big rain forest building that was in itself better than the whole KC Zoo, it had a fun rope bridge that Robert managed to cross while carrying Cody. It also had a awesome aquarium that was probably Cody's favorite. He is really into sharks these days so he loved seeing them swim right over his head. We tried to see the IMAX under the sea movie, we saw about 30 min of it and then called it good, Jake didn't want to nap through it like I had hoped and Cody was terrified, it was in 3D and there were a lot of fish eating fish scenes, so we decided to let the people behind us enjoy the rest of the movie and we left. We saw lions, tigers and bears and a lot more and took a round trip train ride to top the day off. Here are some pictures of our weekend......

How fun! Looks like it was great. We went to Hogle Zoo last week, I think your zoo was a little better.:)
