Put Me In The Zoo

Mom took Monday off and thought we'd take advantage of Public School being back in session and enjoy a leisurely day at the zoo.  Wrong Mom!  It was PACKED wall to wall with people.

When you promise a kid a zoo trip, you have to follow through.  We soldiered on and just kept patient.  One thing we loved was the new budgie exhibit.  Mom almost didn't let us go in because she was sure we'd get pooped on, but we didn't!

There was a cool dog show too.

and we waited extra long to ride the carousel because some kid took the tiger B had his eye on and Mom feared for his safety. 

an extra 10 minutes in line is worth it when public safety is at stake.

Me, I rode the rhino.  We all know Rhino's are the coolest and toughest.

Mom went all out!  We got Dippin' Dots which of course I loved and B did not.

We rode the train! 

Obligatory Mom selfie.

We are not sure why, but B INSISTED Mom take his picture like this.

Of course we raced the cheetahs.

Um.. we didn't win.

We went through the budgie house twice to ensure maximum exposure to bird flu, malaria and poop.

They're pretty though!

Pay a couple of bucks for a few seeds on a stick and you'll get the birds to sit on your hand or your stick.

We thought it was the coolest thing ever!

Just call me the bird whisperer.  Or is it tweeter?

Mom wanted a nice picture to commemorate our day at the zoo.  I of course struck my angel pose.  B...  well B did his thing too.

Thanks Mom!  What a great day:)
