We were able to cross two more things off our Memphis bucket list this past week. Last Friday we took Declan on the trolley downtown and went to a few art galleries. It was fun but very hot. We also ate at one of our favorite places, Fino's, and we found out that Declan likes salami. Weird.
Declan LOVED the trolley! Except when it would stop to drop people off or pick people up. Then he would immediately start crying and wouldn't stop until it started to go again.
On Tuesday Zach took the day off and we had big plans of taking Declan to the zoo but the weather was not on our side. With the heat index it felt like 120*. Way too hot to walk around the zoo. So, at the last minute we decided to go to the Peabody hotel and watch the duck march. Every day at 11:00 and 5:00 they have a duck march and it is quite the production. They have a duck master and the ducks march on a red carpet into the fountain in the hotel lobby. I couldn't believe how crowded it was. You can kind of tell from the picture but there were so many people there!
Declan loved the ducks! He was one of the first kids that raced to the fountain once they were all in. It was really cute.
He pretty much just loved the hotel in general. There was lots of room to walk and a lot of new places to see. He even made a few friends. He's not shy around other little kids. He will walk right up to them and start playing.
Don't worry, I didn't let him dump the fake grass all over the nice carpet.
