After 6 weeks we finally were able to get out and do something fun as a family.....THE ZOO!

This was not zoomed in.  

Feeding the bears from the cage truck.

At one point there were 15 tigers roaming around us.

This Liger let out a large growl at me because my phone wasn't food.  It scared all of us.

"gimmie, gimmie, gimmie"

Little buddy wasn't too sure about lions and tigers crawling all around us and growling.  

It was quite humbling.

Albino tiger.

There were elephants walking all around the zoo giving rides.

TIGON!!!

Black Panther.

Leapard. 

Scary!

The elephant picked both mom and baby up.  Amazingly strong.

Crocodiles.

Red Panda

The workers put the birds on the girls and wouldn't remove them until I paid 

them for a picture.  I decided to play nice.

"WARNNING".....Really?

Pink Flamingos

Pelican.

Poor little guy.

DUMB BED BUGS!  At first we thought it was chicken pox because the same day these bumps showed up we found out a teacher at the school had come down with chicken pox.  Jordan had the bumps all over his head, face, neck and hands.  The owners of the school found out about the bumps and were extremely worried so they sent 3 drivers in the middle of the night to take our family to the hospital.  They had personally called a doctor that was there waiting for us.  Our kids were all asleep and the thought of waking them all up to be separated into three cars, drive for almost 2 hours to a hospital of who knows what quality, and keep the kids up all night was completely unfathomable.  We had to get everyone to stand down and they thought we were the worst parents for not taking him to the doctor immediately.  Eventually we shared some pictures of the bumps with a doctor who said it didn't look too serious so we all finally were able to go to bed after 2 am.  Rough night but in the end it does appear to just be bug bites.

Learning to speak with a translator is a skill that will probably take me a while to master.
