Detroit

So, Detroit. We had a blast! We went to the zoo first, then to a Tigers game (where they got spanked by the Red Sox.) Alex found the tiger claws (no foam fingers in Comerica Park!) but he didn't get any because... anyone wanna guess how much they cost? $15 each! Can you believe that?
But he did get this super cute hat that he loves!


This is the tunnel at the zoo. It goes underneath the seal habitat and they show off for the people. One of them just hung out letting the jet blow on it's face for about 5 minutes. Alex thought this was pretty fascinating, especially when they swam over our heads.


Since the movie The Golden Compass Jeff and I have both added Polar Bears to our fantasy army. Thus of course we had to take a picture with this one.



The fish kept swimming by in this tank, and anyone that sees alex... ever... knows what he is saying here. Whereareyou?!?!



I wished we would have had more time in Detroit, there was SO much more to do. Next time for sure...

uh your kid looks all big and stuff with that hat on. He doesn't look that grown up in real life....most of the time.

What fun times! You crammed a lot into a week, that's for sure. Great photos, too. Alex does look big in that hat, Nellie! You are right. Nice job with your pics - we had a great week, too.
