Petting the Galapagos Tortoises

My friend Rose won a "Feed the Galapagos Tortoises Experience."  She invited us to come along and feed them.  It was so fun!

We love our local zoo at Santa Fe College in Gainesville.  It's not real big, very shady and a perfect way to spend a couple of hours. 

Everyone got to touch a tortoise.  Even Liberty!

 Then, we were able to feed them some papaya.  It is so neat how they have trained the tortoises to follow the stick with the red ball on it.  They are pretty smart!

The zoo keepers did great leading us along and we all had a great time.  Thanks Rose!
