What In The Wild?

A few weeks ago, Activity Club took a trip to the Washington Zoo. We hadn't gotten more than half way there when our van load of girls started with the "I'm Hungry!'s". Isaac & I had the younger group of girls and were then joined by Christina. Needless to say, we had lots of fun. We unfortunately didn't get to see the lions or tigers OR bears, but we did get to see some flamingos. They were a big hit as you can well imagine. : ) The monkeys were also quite cool. We watched/heard Pink Panther the entire way there and back. I rather liked that movie. No words, just cool music. We stopped at McDonald's on the way home to get something to eat instead of overheated ham sandwiches, and to get the girls their promised treat. Nobody in there could speak proper English and they kept messing up ours as well as other people's ice cream orders so we came away with two free ice creams. : ) Thanks to everyone for a super fun day!







 Isaac carried quite the load for a bit...

 An elephant's yawn is as long as they are big. This guy had yawned for like a whole minute!

mazing! another one so quick (post i mean) thank you :) flamingos on one foot i havent quite fathomed either, they probably don't want to get their feathes wet, so they do it one foot at a time, so they always have one foot rested up. why am i speaking on behalf of a flamingo...?? probably has to do with the hour of day, umm i mean night..! good night. i will not sleep on one foot ever!

"Oh, sisters, don't forget to see the alligators!" Beautiful pics! Love the elephant foot!

Roshini - Maybe flamingos have never gotten a representitive! Maybe you could team up with Tina and go public and speak on the behalf of flamingos. Maybe they need therapy or something.

Teresa - LOL! Coffee, Tea? No, I'm fine. Just get me outta here!!!
