Polar Frontier

This weekend I decided to take the kids (Clay and Collin to be exact) to the zoo. The new Polar exhibit was finished and I really wanted to see it. So we trek over to the other side of Columbus and get out walk over to North America, we see the Grizzly and Black bears, Wolverine, and the Bob Cats and then we got to the Polar Frontier, and it's decked out! It's really neat, there's a playground and a man dressed in a polar bear outfit (which Collin was kinda scaried of) and there was a huge exhibit for the Polar Bears.
We are so excited, the hype is building, we're going to see the Polar Bear!!! When we finally get there, what do we see a sleeping white bear that won't move... isn't that always the way. He was on a rock back a ways, so you couldn't even see him very well. But the exhibit itself is amazing and the kids loved it nonetheless. Ofcourse that is until Clay told me he was going to throw up... then the fun really started.

We were probably 3/4 of a mile away from the car and I was trying to get Clay and Collin back to the car, but every time Clay walked a little bit, he would start to turn green and get cold sweats. We stopped at every bench and every bathroom but we were getting no where pretty fast (the zoo was closing), so I talked to a zoo worker and asked if someone could take us to our car (like a wheelchair or something), well I got the security people in their golf carts and EMS to check on Clay, I tried to tell them he's just got a bug and he's not dehydrated (what do I know though....), anyway, they ended taking us directly to our car on the golf cart and Collin thought that was just TOO cool!!
