The rest of Cinncy Trip

The first day, we went to the Cincinnati zoo (See previous post) we had dinner at Macaroni Grill. Here's Cailey and her huge meatball!

The next day there was another graduation ceremony & picnic. Again me & Cailey did not go. We stayed in Florence KY where our hotel was and went to the mall. And also checked out the local scrapbook store of course!!
The mall had a two story carousal. It was very pretty and Cailey got to ride.

The White Tiger, the chosen mode of transportation.


Softplay play area at the mall. Cailey loved it!
After all graduation stuff was over we all met at Graeters Ice Cream. Oprah is not kidding when she says it's the BEST ice cream ever!

Waiting on a table at Outback steakhouse that evening.

After eating dinner we went down to Newport on the Levee. It's a big shopping area where the aquarium is also. They were having a festival so even though the stores had already closed we got to check out the lights of Cincinnati.

Cincinnati Trip - Zoo June 13th

We went to Cincinnati Ohio June 12th - 15th. Our friend Chad Horsley was graduating from University Cincinnati with his Doctrine in Music. While Richard was with the Horsley family at the graduation, which I knew would be a big mistake to even attempt taking Cailey to, me & her went to the zoo. Which was only a mile away from the campus. It was a beautiful zoo, which was also the botanical gardens. We had a great time, unfortunately we didn't take the stroller with us so Cailey did a lot of walking. So she got a few blisters on the back of her feet.

First animal to see, the Lemurs.

In the Insect Building, which was pretty cool & totally gross at the same time.

Naked mole rats -----------Leaf Cutter ants. They had tubes running throughout with the ants going through them. Was neat.

Some kitties.

-----------------------------Mommy & baby gorilla

More Monkies-------------Me & Cailey taking a break




Penguins & Black Bear

Polar Bears!!! One of Cailey's favorite animals.


Manatees.


Cailey's red lips after eating a cherry icee.-----Tiger

Petting zoo-------------Cailey's hand gerking back after feeding the goat a leaf.

Cooling off!!

Siegfried & Roy's White Lions

Now, the HUGE cooling off a torrential down pore!!!!! The Lions didn't seem to mind a bit. We got totally drenched from head to toe!! Running to the car, with shoes in hand, and ringing out hair wet!!
We went back to the campus to wait on the ceremony to end and pick up Richard.
