Vacation - Omaha

We are back from vacation and I'm already feeling like I need another one

Don't get me wrong, it was nice to get away,

things just didn't go quite as I had planned

There's my problem,

I should not plan

The hubby ended up with a fever the three days we were gone

and

it was HOT in Omaha

On Wednesday we went to the zoo and it was 95 degrees
(81 degrees back in Iowa - Go Figure!)

On Tuesday we drove to Omaha 

We had lunch at The Amazing Pizza Machine

After lunch we checked into our hotel and let the kids swim for a bit

Once the kids had some of their energy burned we went to the Old Market (Down Town)

The kids enjoyed spending money at the Candy Shop 

We had supper at Subway and headed back to the hotel to crash

On Wednesday we went to Henry Doorley Zoo

(Need I say more? This zoo is AMAZING)

After the zoo we let the kids swim some more

and then we went and checked out the Pioneer Courage Park

On Thursday morning, we checked out of our hotel and went back downtown

We walked the Bob Kerrey Pedestrian Bridge

After we were done with our walk, the boys were hungry
I heard that Jones Bros. Cupcakes has the best cupcakes on the planet
Well guess what, they are no longer in downtown Omaha
We ended up at Bliss Bakery to have some sweets

And we headed home
