Lemur Lessons

A couple of Wednesdays ago, we took a trip to the Duke Lemur Center to learn all about Lemurs!  It was a beautiful spring day, and aside from enjoying it with the Lemurs, we got to enjoy it with our good friends!  Look how sweet these girls are. . .they are all holding hands.  These two girls are 2 of Madeline's best friends.

Ryan is added to the mix.  Check out the look on his face.  You can tell he's a little embarrassed to join the girls.

The field trip began with a short video about Lemurs.

Ry Ry is so cute.  He LOVES animals.  He is delighted about how cute these lemurs are on-screen.

The Lemurs came very close to the fence to enjoy this beautiful day.  It was incredible to see them in their natural habitat.  Our tour guide was a wonderful, older woman, who knew so much about lemurs.  I think she must of been in her 80's.  As a result, our tour lasted a VERY long time, as she walked very slowly.  This made things a bit hard with the kids at the end, as they were ready for the tour to be over.
