The Albuquerque Zoo

This year we decided to buy season passes to the Albuquerque BioParks. The bioparks include the zoo, aquarium, and the botanical gardens. So this weekend we decided to go to the zoo and the aquarium.

Jonathan's camel ride.

I was sitting with Jaden while Jason was going to ride the camel with Jonathan. Keep in mind there is a 175 lb weight limit. Everyone who's in line in front of Jason and Jonathan are riding the camel with no problems. Now Jason and Jonathan are the next to ride. The girl in charge of the camel ride tickets looks at Jason and says there is 175 lb weight limit and won't let him ride. Even though the man and son that are on the camel before Jason and Jonathan obviously exceed the weight limit. I told Jason he should have switched places with me and I could have rode with Jonathan. Jason was too shocked to think of that. And then to make matters worse the father (who is the same size as Jason) and son who were behind Jason and Jonathan, were only asked how many will ride the camel. Needless to say Jason was a little mad. Anyway, that is why there is a girl riding with Jonathan and yes that is the same girl that told Jason he couldn't ride.
