DinoAlive

Once again the zoo has not disappointed us. DinoAlive is the latest exhibit that was available free for early viewing to members at the beginning of the month. Isabelle and I headed out one early evening just for that hoping to make it out of the zoo in about 30 minutes as we had Bible study that night too. I knew the exhibit was at the far back of the zoo but I didn't know many other members would be in the line to get in as well. On top of that it took 15 minutes to see the first two dinosaurs. The rest of the way had a wider path that we were able to get through a little more quickly but still had to power walk out of the zoo to book it to church. The exhibit was quite impressively live like with these animatronics moving and sound effects. Contrary to the pictures below, thankfully Isabelle was not scared, unlike some of the other kids. She seemed to enjoy herself pointing when they moved and saying her "see", "oh", and "wow wow".

I do like Isabelle's faces. Maybe she's thinking, "are you sure he only eats plants?" and "I'm more concerned about those dinosaurs behind you, mommy, with their sharp claws!". At the end of the exhibit there were those tiny dinosaurs appropriately tearing up Barney.

Of course there was the infamous T-Rex and babies in the nest. Again Isabelle shows a face of concern of "why are we standing within chomping distance?".

We enjoyed the free DinoAlive exhibit and would gladly pay next time if anyone in the area cares to join us for the fun adventure!
