Our last family day before school beings. Jeff and I both had off work today so we took Claire to the new Houston Interactive Aquarium! It was pretty cool and we got to pet and feed some pretty awesome animals!
Claire liked to pet the giant rabbits...
and she loved feeding the ground squirrels!
This was just a cool picture...an octopus is such a strange looking creature!
We ended up being in many of the right places at the right time. Claire was allowed to finish feeding the camel it's bottle!
Jeff got to feed the Emu.
Claire liked hanging with the goats for a while...
and she had fun feeding dried seaweed to the fish. They liked to snatch it out of her fingers!
We had fun feeding the parakeets...Claire chose to not do this activity.
Jeff and Claire went inside with the ring-tailed lemurs to learn about them and pet them!
Claire and I got to experience having a Kinkajou...related to the racoon, they are nocturnal and they sure are curious little buggers. They quickly found my ponytail and tried chewing it! We learned that their long tails are all muscle and their tails are strong enough to support their entire body weight! It sure felt weird having them crawl all over us!
Claire got to go in and pet the kangaroos.
This was my favorite part...Claire and I spent some time with the black and white ruffed lemurs.
They were so soft and fun to pet! Their paws are super soft with long fingers! They sure do make some loud noises though!
It was a wonderful way to spend our last family day together before the chaos of school begins!
