We spent one beautiful, sunny and warm day exploring the Jacksonville Zoo! It was a great zoo, not too big and not too small. Arabella enjoyed seeing all the different animals and she especially liked Stingray Bay. At Stingray Bay we were able to get up close to the stingrays and even touch them as they swam by. They are such beautiful creatures and it reminded me of when Jay and I were in the Cayman Islands and we were able to swim with them. Arabella also fed the giraffes and had so much fun doing so. She liked to watch the otters swim and liked the flamingos and watching the bonobos.
Since it got a little warm, Arabella decided that she wanted to cool down in the splash park. It enjoyed running around and exploring all of the different splash pads.
We even had the chance to walk out on the dock in Trout River and feed a few seagulls. Arabella loved how close they got to us.
It was the perfect day!
