Our family needed to be reminded that we enjoy each others company and we needed to find something positive about Minnesota, so we headed north for a day trip to Duluth. It was just the refresher that we needed.
We started at the zoo. We had been there once before and remembered liking it. It is much smaller, cozier, less crowded and cheaper than our zoo (which we also love).

They have a little electric, trackless train that takes you on a 7 minute ride around the middle of the zoo. The boys picked the first car, the girls picked the caboose. No one in between.
Laura's latest obsession is birds. She and this swan were fast buddies.
After the zoo, we headed to Channel Park because there were a couple huge ships scheduled to come in and you get to stand right next to them as they come into the harbor. But they were delayed, so we had to settle for seeing the lift bridge only go halfway up for some smaller boats a few times.
The kids enjoyed throwing rocks in the lake.
And Laura found some more bird friends - the seagulls.
