Wednesday, we had a bit more relaxed day, and headed to the local zoo--Micke Grove. We had been there once before, when Maya was a baby, but it was fun to go back with both girls. They had so much fun seeing all of the animals and posing with some statues (not sure why Cortlyn felt the need to climb on top of the poor lady in the 2nd statue picture)...
Their favorite part, for sure, was feeding the lorikeets.--They flew right to us and our containers of nectar, as soon as we walked into their cage! =)
Before we went back home, the girls rode on a few amusement rides--We basically had the whole place to ourselves, so we didn't have to worry about lines or anything. The rides were geared more towards Cortlyn's age probably, but Maya is such a trooper--It didn't bother her at all. She was happy to get right in there with Cortlyn.
The roller coaster somehow wasn't what Cortlyn expected (even though it was little, it took off at the speed of light!), so she was not impressed (as you can see in the picture--Maya's face is pretty funny, as a result, as well!). This shocked me, because normally she loves this type of thing, but the guy stopped the ride, and I got on with Maya. It was so fun listening to her giggle as we went round and round. =)
Such a fun little outing! =)

that looks like a great zoo,i will have to visit aunt vicky some day,xxx
