Today we celebrated Allie's 7th birthday by taking a trip up north to Minocqua. Our first stop was at the Wildwood Wildlife Park. This place has quite a variety of animals to see...bears, tigers, zebras, otters, llamas, peacocks, camels, lemurs, and bald eagles just to name a few. Lots of the animals are just wandering around the park, waiting for you to feed them a cracker.
This adorable little guy kept following Allie around.
She was brave enough to get close to this tortoise,
but Meredith wasn't so sure.
This bunny was a bit less scary.
And this cute little hedgehog was fun to touch.
After lunch, we headed further north to beautiful Crystal Lake. Today was the hottest day of the summer so far and it felt so good to take a swim in the clear, cool water.
Back in town, we found a couple of geocaches and then stopped to play some putt-putt golf.
We ended the day with an ice cream sundae, then forced two reluctant kids back in the van, and headed for home.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY ALLIE!
P.S. Be sure to check in tomorrow for a BIG NEWS announcement!
