Ohio - Day 4: Children's Zoo, Fort Wayne, IN

We drove across the border to Indiana to go to the zoo. And MAN was it icky out that day. 90ish with 90% humidity. I discovered I'm DEFINITELY NOT a fan of humidity. I'll take my 110+ and dry heat over that stuff!!

BIG giraffe that people were feeding. Ryleigh got a turn to feed it too, but a little girl got in the way of my picture of her actually doing it.

Orangutan. She was just sitting there holding her blankie. Probably too hot to play around.

The other guy was curled up next to the cage door. Wonder if the metal was cooler?

There was a rainforest in a bubble. Let's just say it was REALLY moist in there.

An enormous alligator we were debating whether or not it was real. We cornered a zookeeper who told it was in fact real. It was HUGE!

There was a miniature farm, complete with farm animals (of course!).

We saw peacocks all over the place while walking around. They just wandered all over the place. When we were walking towards the entrance, we saw a peacock with it's feathers open. It was beautiful.
