Fun Roadtrip

Zach and I had a great roadtrip down to Texas! We left thursday morning and stopped in Fairmont, Montana to go for a swim in the hot springs. This was pretty cool! The next day we stopped in Fort Collins, CO to see Allyssa and Linz..this was a wonderful visit. We got a chance to see downtown Fort Collins (which is so cool) and spend some great time with the girls and Allyssa's parents.

The next day we spent the morning at the Denver Zoo. They have a great zoo and there were so many things to see. There was even the cutest little baby orangutan. She was so strong she could hold onto her mom while she climbed around and the baby was hardly bigger than a 2-month old!

We made it to Texas that night and camped briefly. Then the next day we stopped at the Botanical Gardens in Fort Worth, TX. The Japanese Gardens were beautiful. Zach had a lot of fun practicing his kung-fu moves on me. We both enjoyed feeding the huge Koi fish.

We got quite good at making sandwiches on the trunk of my car with no supplies, we played science trivia for kids (the fastest growing plant is bamboo and it grows over 3 feet a day!), we listened to just about everything, talked about everything and only got pulled over once. The cop was very nice and very much a Texan and only gave us a warning. We also saw many gorgeous sunsets!
