Yesterday we went to 'The Living Desert'. It was H-O-T, so we spent only a couple hours there...but in that time it was hands down way cooler than the zoo in Edmonton. The giraffes were a highlight for sure. We were too late for the giraffe feeding but were able to get nice and close to them afterwards. There was also a model choo choo exhibit thing that I'm sure Jackson could have stood at and discussed all day! At the very end Papa and Jackson went on a camel ride...and Jackson is still talking about it! Papa is too, but mostly out of pain! It was fun. It's so hot here that after a couple hours in the sun you have to find shade and air conditioning. I can't even imagine what it's like in their 'summer season' as this is more than hot enough for us!

| The model area...'what that one's name?' is a frequent question around here lately! |
