Fourth day of Green Bay!

Yesterday was a emotional rollercoaster!!  

To start the day Jeff and I went to Lambeau Field!  You can't actually see the field which made us sad but you could go in the main area and the gift shop.


                                         


some pretty flowers that were there




They had a pink jersey! ( Yes I am a Bears fan but can't resist pink)
If Jeff starts to like Packers i have a present picked out :)

Jeff was mad I made him put on the hat :)

Bye Bye Lambeau!



After Lambeau Jeff and I decided to go to Noodles and Company!  It was really really good!!  


Jeff Got the Japanese Pan Noodles and I got Pesto Cavatappi Yum!!




After lunch I dropped Jeff off and I headed to the Bay Beach Wildlife Sanctuary.  I found this place WONDERFUL!!  I had so much fun even though I was by myself.  I didn't feel by myself though and you will see why in the pictures :)


More on the ducks later....



At Bay Beach Wildlife Sanctuary you can bring injured wildlife and they will treat them and release them back into the wild!  If you know me that is one of my biggest weaknesses!  I can not leave a animal that is lost or hurt :)  This place just seemed like a dream because I enjoyed it so much.  Ok you guys are just like "you are crazy" lol but i just have a love for animals that most people can not understand.  
At the Wildlife Sanctuary there were other animals you could look at, almost like a zoo but not as exotic.  Below are a few other animals I saw!
Different kind of Birds

falcon

owl

burrowing owl

forget what kind of owl

snow owl



cute little tiny owl


Turkey Vultures



Bald Eagle

They were about to talk about this raven and little owl

little birdy


There was also a indoor area that at different things.

snakes


other small birds

turtles

bats

This is what you had to go through to get to the bats, it was really dark in there!

The Nature Center has a gift shop and a bunch of stuff for kids to look at and learn about.  This was the first place I went and I thought this was all that was here but i was proven wrong!  I went into the gift shop and asked the Santa Claus looking guy what else was here and he went into a 15 minutes chat on what all I could look at.  I was super glad I had asked him because if I hadn't I would of missed a lot!!



Map of just the activity part there is also a trails map

A bird that was inside the Nature Center as someone's pet

These little chipmunks kept scaring me because they would jump out at you!


Now getting into my FAVORITE area!  This is the Duck pond.  You can feed the duck and geese and they are EVERYWHERE! I have never seen so many in one area!  They love it and so do I!

Waterfall!










As you could see there were a lot and that was just a couple of the pictures I took!!  They were pretty friendly too!

On to another section of the sanctuary the Mammals!!



Otters

Bobcats
Coyote


                                                  
In this building there were many animals too!

Little owl


Turtles

I love this video!! I saw this and I was laughing so hard! Watch Carefully!! 




This is the Whirlygig Pond!  It really pretty because it was a very bright green!


It started out such a wonderful day......


If you didn't notice my post yesterday did not get put on till 10pm.  There is a reason for that.  Since all of my pictures were on my camera I had to take out the SD card and plug it into my computer.  Well the adapter I had decided to not work.  So I went to Best Buy and bought a new one.  I headed back to the hotel and plugged it in. It didn't work because you had to install a driver.  So I put in the CD which was a mini one and I didn't know you can't put those into your laptop unless it had the CD drive that comes out.  So I stuck it into the side of my computer and it got stuck!! I tried everything to get it out and I couldn't so I looked online for an Apple store.  I found one not far away and headed there.  Once I arrived I was very very mad because it was literally and APPLE store like the fruit!


So I hurried up and looked online to make sure it said it could repair a Mac computer this time lol.  I found a camera store and went there and of course all the tech's had left for the day... So I told the sales guy what my problem was and with a shake of the compter and holding it upside down he got it to where he could grab it with tiny pliers.  Yay!!  They also had an adapter that didn't need a driver! 

 On my way back to the hotel I was driving down the street and saw this beside me.....


I looked all over for the driver and I could not see one!! I finally realized that the wheel was on the right! Hahaha! That kind of freaked me out.
After all of that stuff ( Yes it was a Looooong day) Jeff took me to Olive Garden!!  We shared Fettucini Alfredo and I got Pumpkin Cheesecake!

So my day went from good to bad to good again!  Now if we could just find a place to live...
