Jax Zoo & Din Din

Even though we got up pretty early on Thursday, a lagging Bell Man and the most useless Valet guy...ever! Set us back about an hour...I kid you not! But, we eventually got on the road to Jax...where we had planned to spend the day @ the Zoo. Unfortunately, our day at the zoo only lasted about 4 hours...which was fine by me cause it was insanely HOT & humid! But, 4 hours was plenty of time to see a few of the exhibits we missed the last time we were there...

Could this fish be any bigger!?OMG, SO CUTE...Giant Otters!Snuggin' on the Merry-go-Round Lambie lovin' it!

Ryan acting like the Cheetah he's riding

Running through the garden maze...He pretty much dragged her through the whole thing!

Bubby showing Lambie how to brush goats!

.LMFAO.

What part of "Don't get wet"...did he not understand!?

OH dear god!

This pic was taken tight after the Stingray 'bit' him...we tried explaining that they don't have teeth...the zoo keeper explained that they don't have teeth. Nothing was getting through the hysterics...he didn't believe any of us! The drama lasted about 3 minutes...and then he saw a stuffed stingray w/a pirate hat, eye patch and earring..that he HAD to have [and got] and all of a sudden stingray's were his FAVORITE animal!

The sucking is so weird...

We left the Zoo at around 5...PERFECT timing for a nice dinner before getting on the road...OR so we thought!

Ryan gets excited cause he loves bridges & seeing the boats on the water...Mommy gets excited cause this means we are going to PF Changs!

Daddy's drink of choice!

.snob.

Too busy eating to take pics...LOL

Lambie chowing down on her fortune cookie.

Since we got done with dinner so quickly, we decided to stroll around St. Johns Center.

LOVE this mall!!!

Ryan had to ride the train...

Starbucks! Showing me a 'magic trick'

Awww...the whole reason we went to Starbucks...was to meet up w/Fred's buddy, Tamp!

Which turned into shopping w/Tamp...

...and then eating PF Changs...AGAIN...w/Tamp!

She has been so picky lately...but, she ate 2 bowls of egg drop soup!

The Lovins are in bed and I can't wait to get off this laptop & snug the hubster...but, the pics are up as promised! It totally doesn't feel like Friday, since we've been vacationing for the last few days...but, I hope everyone has a fabulous weekend!
