The Rainforest

Last weekend, we woke up to a beautiful day outside and decided to take a short trip to The Rainforest. So, we jumped in the car....

....and drove an hour to The Rainforest. Even before we entered, we were met by a crocodile that was emerging from the swamp! Yikes!!

We were brave, and entered The Rainforest anyway. Suddenly, from up above, a large friendly snake appeared.

We continued our adventure and started to spot many, very wild, and somewhat familiar looking, animals.
Including "Dory!!"

We were really there to get some food. This particular Rainforest has plenty on the menu, and we've enjoyed dining there several times. Ok, it's probably our favorite restaurant right now, but a little out of the way. We took advantage of our opportunity to get up close to several more animals while we waited for our food.

Every few minutes, The Rainforest comes alive, with sounds of thunder and flashes of lightening, the animals start moving and you can hear elephants and gorillas. The dining experience is like none other, and a great place for the family to eat!

This is awesome. Maybe my favorite post ever!

I love that Emma looks so afraid by the snake and I love the animal legs. This sounds like a blast.

Did anyone wonder why you were taking all the photos?

Where is this great restaurant?

This is one of our favorite restaurants as well ~ especially since Sam was an animal lover at the age of 2! The last time we went, Sam sat at the table with his hands over his ears the entire time b/c he didn't like the thunderstorms! :-) Your pics are adorable!

This Rainforest Cafe is located in the Towson Town Center, right outside Baltimore. We went for an early lunch, so the restaurant wasn't busy yet. We could have fun and take all the pics we wanted without disturbing other guests. I think we took pictures of the entire place, so I'm sure the staff thought we were just another crazy tourist family!!

Such a cute post! We love this restuarant, but we have never taken Owen. He definitely needs to go, animal lover that he is!
Love the picture with the animal legs!
