Sunday,October 12th

We visited Brookfield Zoo on Sunday after being awakened at 6:30 by the fire alarm going off at our hotel. Fortunately, there was no fire, but there was quite a big mess
of water in the hotel
when we went back in. Luckily, it was on the other side of the elevator bank from us!
It was a great day to visit the zoo! It was unseasonably warm with a high in the low 80s! We had the chance to see tons of amazing animals including elephants, giraffes, gorillas, dolphins, seals, and penguins. We were also able to see the dolphin show, ride the carousel, and the tram! All in all it was a great time (with the exception of the temper tantrum over the giraffe on the carousel!)!
After the zoo, we drove to Elgin to meet some of Mommy's old co-workers for supper! We met Bill, Alicia, Julian, Tony, Kelli, Josh, Zack, Rich, Belinda, Maddie, and Mary for supper at Red Robin's. It was tons of fun, especially since Mommy misses her friends!
