I know what you were thinking when we moved. Be honest. You were thinking, “Thank God! Finally no more posts about the %*#@! zoo!”
Well guess what?
The new town has a zoo! And we went! And I am posting about it!
Don’t worry. We don’t have a membership (yet) so you won’t see zoo posts popping up with the same regularity as before. But for today, you’ll have to suffer through.
At least the scenery will be different. That’s something, right?
Onward, to the zoo pics…
My friend Suzanne and her son Max invited us to a day at the zoo. Molly and Max had a few days off of school and the weather was beautiful, so how could we resist?
A chilly start to the day.
Off to the reptile house. I thought, “Wow, that’s a neat sculpture. The crocodiles look pretty realistic.”
And then one of the crocodiles moved. Umm, not a sculpture. Real crocodiles and my kid was leaning over the railing just a few feet from their ferocious jaws.
Molly poses with her favorite zoo animal: The Gorillas.
Woo Hoo! Molly was so excited to see that this zoo had a carousel, just like the one back home.
Max and Molly pose for a picture.
And another. These two fall into a pose with each other so easily that it reminds me of a married couple. Which I am not at all ready for. At all. At least not in this century.
A visitor to our lunch table.
The sun was right behind Molly's head so not a great picture, but this peacock strutted right up to her and demanded some lunch.
Another Molly and Max pic on the train.
Max on the playground.
Molly in the tortoise shell.
Max’s turn.
And one last picture to end the day. Uh, Max. Please take you hand off of my daughter’s thigh. Thank you.
Reader’s beware…I just might be purchasing a zoo pass in the not-to-distant future. And you thought you were done with zoo posts.
Bwaa ha ha ha!
