Columbus, Ohio

Felipe and I have been in Cincinnati, Ohio this summer. A few weekends ago we decided to go to Columbus. They have a pretty cool zoo and their MLS team the Columbus Crew was playing Salt Lake Real. We had a great time and I got to live out one of my life long dreams - walk around with kangaroos. We had a great time!
Driving to the zoo with our shades on.

Fil is closest to a Black bear. not even close to the polar bear height!

These were HUGE bats. They are called flying foxes or something. I hope I never see one in nature!

They have a lot of flamingos! All different colors of pick too...

This little penguin was enjoying his audience. He sang us a squawking song for a while. When we were at the soccer game, they had these horns that sounded exactly like him!

Sea Turtle. Probably my favorite from this zoo.

On our walk with the kangaroos. You get to walk through their fenced in area and they hopped all around you. Too bad it was really hot and they were almost all asleep except this dude.

I love his legs!

At the game. Salt Lake is red and Columbus is yellow. The man in front of us was wearing a kilt. Couldn't get a picture though...

I think Felipe really enjoyed the game.

Us at the game. Real lost but it was still a great game. I am still trying to convince Felipe to have a favorite team and not cheer for the refs. Don't know if I will ever win that battle!
