Day 25 - Olathe, KS to Fayetteville, AR

The last day of our trip we headed to the Kansas City Zoo before trekking back to Arkansas. Overall we were slightly disappointed with the experience, but it definitely had it's high points, not the least of which was this section of the zoo where the kangaroos were not fenced in and viewers could pass freely along the path right next to them.















The elephants were pretty cool, but the best part was the show that the trainers had them put on. The trainers spent a good 10-15 minutes talking the elephants through some tricks and telling the viewers about elephants in general.
















Also very cool were the cheetahs that seemed to look right at us as we passed by them.














It was a bitter sweet feeling coming back into Arkansas. We had a great time on our trip, but we were definitely ready to be back home in small-town Arkansas.














Once we got back into the Natural State, we headed down to see Katy's sister before leaving the next morning for a wedding. Overall I don't think the trip could have possibly been any better than it was. There were a few forgettable moments, but I know we wouldn't trade the experiences for anything.
