Day 13 - Jumbo

I took the girls to the Jumbo monument in St. Thomas today. We pass it everytime we go to Grandma's and Haley really enjoyed seeing it up close. The story goes that the mother elephant was killed by the train saving her baby. Not sure if this is life sized or not, but I know that it was one of the biggest Giant African Elephants alive at the time. This thing was huge and very cool to see up close.
I again couldn't just pick one, so I have a few that turned out good.
