I went to Ohio for Vacation...

[dashnu]

Packed up the kids rented a van and drove 12 hours to see all my family last week.

I also hit the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo (http://www.clemetzoo.com) What fun..

Here are some pics of some of the cool critters I saw.

They are in the Rainforest Section. You need to buy an extra ticket seperate from the zoo ticket for it.
