The Clan McKinnon

My next exploring adventure was at the Detroit Zoo with my parents and Papa Joe & Grandma! We found a nice cool spot in the polar bear exhibit to relax. After about 10 minutes of just watching the polar bear sit right above us... ...he decided to play in the water with his ball! That's when the real excitement began!  He kept swimming and diving right next to me!  I could almost reach out and touch him! We eventually moved up to watch him from above the water. Where he kept up his playtime! To cap off our visit, I enjoyed my first Choo-Choo ride! Bye Bye Zoo - I can't wait to come visit again!

At the Ann Arbor Hands On Museum! There were so many interesting things that caught my attention. Many things to try to climb up. And a few things to climb through! Of course, a few things to sit on as well - some that fit even really big kids!

It was a beautiful Sunday to take a family outing to our boat! I loved having my own floating raft! Daddy and I enjoyed swimming around together!

One Sunday morning, Daddy took me to Washtenaw Dairy - one of my favorite places to walk or bike to for ice cream!  I had no idea this place also has donuts! Mmm, mmm good!

Our last stop was visiting our friends at their Lake Wisconsin cabin.  Daddy caught a little fish but I didn't want to get too close to it.  This was definitely Conor's favorite stop of the trip. He had a friend, Sophie, to run around with! We spent lots of time at the sandbar which was perfect for everyone to play in the water and sand! I practiced my swimming in the shallow water.  My friend William tried to teach me some good swimming techniques! But he swims much faster than me! It was a wonderful family vacation!
