We headed to the St. Louis Zoo this morning. It has been rated the best zoo in the country and is free! The kids got to pet a chinchilla and some guinea pigs (Elaina has been trying to convince me to let her buy one, now she wants one even more).
Abby finally got to see her favorite animal, a cheetah.
The kids all wanted to see a bear since a mama with three cubs was spotted close to our property last year. They finally had the opportunity to see one up close (and on the other side of a fence!).
The penguin exhibit was awesome. Ben announced that he wants a penguin for his birthday.
After the zoo we did a quick walk through the courthouse. Here are the beautiful paintings on the ceiling inside.
Then, we went to get an up-close look at the arch and the museum underneath.
We had so much fun at the Citygarden the day before that we ended up going back again before heading back to the campground.
