Egg Hunt at the Zoo

The day before Easter, we went to the zoo for an egg hunt. It was freezing!!! We bundled up and had a lot of fun.
We had to wait in line for about 1/2 hour before it was our turn to hunt eggs. Here are the girls- just about their turn to go.
And the hunt is on (well, not much of a hunt...the eggs were just spread out on the ground)-
After loading up her basket, Alexis got her face painted with a red heart-
The egg hunt area was right next to the carousel and Alexis really, really wanted to ride. We kept trying to tell her we did not have any cash (you have to buy tokens for the ride- cash only) a lady walking by heard telling Alexis that we didn't have any money & she handed us a bunch of tokens so we could ride- kind of embarrassing but it was really nice of her.
She ended up giving us too many tokens so we were able to give some to another family who were having a similar problem.
After the egg hunt and carousel, we walked around to look at the animals. Not many were out- it was pretty cold. We did see this cool peacock though.
