Great Bend Part 1

 Lilly and I were supposed to go to Great Bend for a week last Monday, but finally made it on Wednesday after I got sick.  Luckily we still had lots of time to spend with Avery and Nana before the rest of the family showed up on Friday night.  We kept the little ones busy, starting with a trip to Vet's to play on the toys and feed the ducks.

 We had just heard from a cute little old lady that the swans were very friendly and tame.  BENDERS BEWARE! These birds are tame, and friendly, but also absolutely NUTS! The big one in this picture had a good foot on my daughter when he stretched his neck out.  He actually walked right up to her and snatched a whole piece of bread right out of her hand!  At one point we threw bread and ran at the same time!   

The geese were a little more appreciative of our food and not so greedy.

Even from the dock the swans were a little scary! 

 This one actually bit my shoe!

Many more pictures to come!
