Grand Rapids Day 1

The day started off with an Obi drop at the doggy hotel and Tim bits!  Then we were off to Grand Rapids!  Only one scary bathroom stop (yeah creepy gas stations) for Evie....Our first stop was a hot dog joint for lunch with free pinballs!
As always, the zoo is a first on our list.  The John Ball zoo was a fun afternoon.
Evie is on gryffindor.
And Natalie too!
The entrance to the zoo has a funicular ride that takes you up the hill to the top of the zoo.
Here we watched the cars go back down.
Kind of like a cool slow roller coaster!
It's a really natural hilly set up.  Complete with zip lines and waterfalls!
Closest encounter of the day-tigers!
Everybody loves a good bongo :)
Really neat lion enclosure.
Stinky birds!!!!!
Girls above the monkey valley!
Hanging out...
Lots of great animals, what a fun afternoon at the zoo!  Went to check into the hotel and both girls fell asleep.  Picked up a pizza and ate/unpacked.  Now we are on the move again to go see the musical fountain in grand haven!  It's pirate weekend, the music is supposed to be pirates of the Caribbean!!!  Can't wait!
