G-Pa's Day!

G-Pa & Lily

G-Pa rising out of the leaves!

Chickens!

Being chased by the goose!

Look what we found near the monkeys!

You can't really see them here, but Lily and I took a photo near the donkeys (they are Joe's favorite)

The 3rd day was my dad's and he decided that he wanted to take Lily to a zoo. Unfortunately there aren't a lot of zoos in Maine- and there are even fewer open this time of year. But Dad found The Acadia Zoo. It was really more like a wild animal sanctuary (most of the animals had been rescued from harmful environments)- and most of the zoo is seen through a guided tour. We had our own private tour (we were the only ones there) and our guide was great. It was interesting to hear the stories behind each animal. I think by and large our favorite was the monkeys (these little tiny things that could jump incredibly fast)- they were facinating to watch. I think that Lily's favorite, however, had to be the chickens (probably because they were free roaming and didn't seem to mind her chasing them a bit). She was also rather fond of the goose (who wasn't so fond of us). After the zoo and lunch we headed back home. The afternoon was filled with fun in the leaf pile- Lily just had an absolute blast- being buried and having others(G-Pa and myself) buried too. She laughed so hard. We finished out the day with dinner at the Bear Brew Pub (one of my dad's favorites here). Good day G-Pa!
