Saturday Adventure.....

Saturday was supposed to be full of soccer games, cleaning, and shopping.  Plans can change as quickly as the weather here.  It was a rainy morning and the temperatures dropped about 20 degrees from yesterday. Soccer was cancelled due to the wet slippery condition of the fields.  We were afraid our afternoon plans would change as well.  The sun started to shine through on our way to Moapa  jackets were still required.

We arrived at the Roos n More Zoo with minutes to spare before our tour began. 

Great Danes were there to greet us.

Lemurs

This lemur was very friendly.
Think King Julian and you would be close.
He loved to be held like a baby and have is belly scratched.

Stand tall Ryder.
Mom, he is heavy.

Baby Boa constrictor
A Zonkey
Part Donkey and Part Zebra

Albino Wallaby
Every wonder what it looks like inside a kangaroo's pouch?
Very soft and warm.
There he is and I get close enough to pet him?

Sure enough he let the kids get up close and personal.

Love at First Sight
My favorite picture of the day.

This little monkey was under a month old and weighed less than a pound.
Otter
He tried to steal my Fitbit and lucky for me was attached or it would become his.
Ferrets
YUCK!!!!
The tour was over and time to leave.

We all had a great time and we were at the end of our tour.  The kids were really sad that Dad had to work and missed all the excitement.  We were glad that our friends invited us to tag along with them.  This was better than visiting the zoo.  I had the lemur fur to prove it.
