Whenever I ask dd if I should use the carrier or the stroller, he always prefers the stroller. Today I took a leap of faith and decided to carry Soph or let her walk herself. The zoo isn't very big anyway and it's meant for the kiddos to run around. The rule/choice of the day is "Either walk and hold hands or be 抱抱". It turned out to be pretty effective and she held my hand 90% of the time. That's a winner of the day for me as I don't have to take care of a runaway toddler and a stroller.
We checked out the meerkats, lemurs, turkey vultures and birds. Sophie spotted this elephant and I asked her if she wanted to take a picture with it. She said yes and this is her way of doing cheese (peace sign)
We found a bench and sat down for lunch-gyozas, egg, peas and corn and fruits. No lunch struggle so it was good.
Enjoying her peas and corn...
Sophie tried a new ride where she had to sit in her car by herself and the car goes round and round. She totally freaked out when I left her to sit in the car by herself, and jerked backwards when the ride started, which startled her. But after a few rounds, she was ok, although she refused to go for a second time.
Of course we had to stop by her favourite ball station. We also went to the playground and she did the slide many times.
Waiting in line for Danny the Dragon ride.
Watching the puppet show for the first time.
On the carousel. Still not willing to sit on one of those animals so we always end up taking the seats.
Sophie wanted another picture! She did a cheese again. Byebye happy hollow and major accomplishment for me!
