Como Town

The boys and I took rolled the dice with the weather yesterday heading to Como Zoo and it paid off. Rain was predicted throughout the day and we did not get wet at all. It was a perfect day for the Zoo. The kids loved it - it was a great way to kick off our Como season pass!

One of the boys favorite rides - the Swings:



Ryan's first time on the Tilt-a-Whirl alone:

Ryan on the Frog Hopper:

Carter on the Frog Hopper:

Hey, who's doing that?

Carter was so excited...

...the entire time!

Ryan enjoying the drops:

It doesn't get any better than this:

Ryan fighting fires:

Teacup time:

Ryan spun Carter so fast, he literally turned green for a few minutes:

Ryan's first time on the Tornado:

Hard to spin it when you are alone on the ride:

Firefighter Ryan:

Firefighter Carter:

Carter in Driving School (you are technically supposed to be 4 to drive, but he was a good head taller than most of the kids in line and he did great!!)

Ryan's turn driving:

Carter taking his car through the car wash:

Carter got a second turn because his green car ran out of 'gas':

Carter in tube slide in Hodge Podge Park:

Ryan on the zipline:

I'm pretty sure this is not the direction you are supposed to be facing on the zipline:

Ryan

crossing the monkey bars

all by himself!

It's hard to tell if he was excited, so you'll just have to take my word for it!

Awesome first day at Como in 2010!!
