Kurihama Flower World

No more flowers, but the changing trees were nice! 

Not sure what flavor "Rabinda" is but it is YUMMY!

Le Soleil - Yokosuka

We took a quick day trip to check out a nearby farm/park/amusement area. It was still kind of warm so we started our day with ice cream from the vending machines. I don't normally care for choc chip, but Coop's ice cream choice was super yummy!
Walking around the farm is free, but they have a lot of activities that you can pay to do. We went on a Sunday (Everything is super crowded here on Sundays!), so there were long lines for everything! We did get in line for the go karts, but it wasn't really moving. After about 10 mins, we walked over to the foot onsens and set up our picnic. 
We spent most of our time at one of the foot onsens, but also had a chance to feed animals, watch a live band and play at the playground. Next time we'll try harvesting vegetables and maybe get on the go karts or bike around on the bike/trike track.  





C found a small group of boys to play with and the 3 of them kept racing up and down this slide!

Fuji Safari Park





Safari Park is located near Mt. Fuji, but it was too overcast to see it this time. There was rain in the forecast so being in our car was pretty ideal.

The boys were so excited to see the animals walking around so close to us!



Who knew kangaroos could be so feisty?! 
After driving through the different animal areas (each was sectioned off kind of like Jurassic Park!), we parked and went to pet some of the animals. The boys were immediately drawn to the kangaroos so we paid about 50 cents or maybe $1 for food to feed them.



Eventually some of the kangaroos started boxing! The boys were so tickled to see it and Justin could not stop laughing.









The rabbit house was also a highlight for Cooper. He loves animals and probably would have been content to stay there for the rest of the day! 

Cooper was so happy to sit nicely and pet the rabbits. Sam wanted to knock things over and run wild. At least they're consistent!

Odaiba- Round 1 and Gundam

Jordan and Binks really wanted us all to go to Round 1 with them before they left. It's like an arcade that also has bowling, batting cages, basketball and a lot of other activities. The little boys were in heaven and even Justin felt young again while hitting balls in the batting cages. Cooper's favorite game was Street Fighter, but he quickly forgot about Round 1 when we walked over to the Gundam Exhibit. He LOVES robots so you can imagine how excited he was to see so many displayed. It was a fun day for everyone!
