We started the morning off with a visit to the Crystal Bridge--a botanic garden designed by I.M. Pei. There were many orchids and plants with lots of thorns.

Afterwards we went back to Bricktown to take pictures of "flaming lips alley" and a bison wearing a UPS uniform. From there we set out in search of a water tower proclaiming the town as the birthplace of Garth Brooks. We found the water tower, but it did not mention Garth Brooks. We also found a longhorn statue and an awesome diner.

Our final OKC stop was at the state capitol. The only capitol with an oil derrick on the grounds. As we were leaving, a very loud and persistant alarm started sounding. It really seemed to be warning us of an impending nuclear attack.

The afternoon was spent in an Oklahoma Exotic Animal Park. It was extremely silly. We fed lots of fuzzy things. The highlights were a ridiculously cute donkey, llamas galore, a camel mafia, and the sneakiest attack ostrich ever. Also giraffes, zebras, and bison.
