Moving slow on race day

 



Sunday was our race day which I have already blogged about.  I recently received pictures from the race photographer.  They show how we were working hard!

















After we cleaned up from our run, and we definitely needed to clean up, we headed to the Dallas Zoo.  Although it was crowded, we were able to see the animals.  The elephants were our favorite, especially the one who threw mud on himself.  










The gorilla really liked his stick...he even got into a fight with another gorilla over it!

What a cute baby elephant!

The baby giraffe was super cute



The lions were having a nap outside a restaurant




This vulture was showing off! 


We stayed at the zoo for a couple of hours and then were getting very hungry and were slowing down.  We wanted Tex Mex, so we headed to El Fenix.  This place was recommended to us twice; once because of its history of being around since 1918 and the other because the chips were good.  Well the food was good, but the chips were phenomenal.  We had an enjoyable meal and then headed to the hotel to rest before the evening and dinner.    




But by dinner time, I wasn't feeling like eating or leaving the room.  So Dave and Camden went to dinner at burger joint.  They came back without rave reviews and we all just rested and relaxed for the evening.  We had had a long day and a lazy evening was what we needed!
