The Zoo......

Ok, so I'm a little behind here. In April I went to the Jacksonville Zoo. I met a few folks there so not all of us rode. One I don't have children so sometimes I like to borrow some and do childish things because it helps us stay alive. Any way the ride to the Zoo was rather short one so I won't decribe that one on this short blog. I just want to say I found that 6 year old boys find the simplest thing interesting. I thing that we spent about an hour in the insect house, but It took an hour to talk him to feeding the little lori birds in the bird house. However though I do have to say once he held out his cup and two lori birds jumped on his hand and starting eating he wanted to stay there and get more food. Me I got to pet one on the head and another one ran over and bit my pant leg??? What the hell even bird girls are silly.

The rare treat was the leopards were out sunning on the big oal trees. Monkeys were all sleeping. His coment, "their all sleeping if off like daddy after his big night out" LOL. Then off to the water park area to cool off. Then to the stingray house for petting. No, we got to pet the stingrays. I do have to say they are smooth soft and feel a bit like rubber. We visited the big snakes, toads, and frogs and I thing the uglier the better. At the end of the day we road the train back to the parking lot. Said our good byes and look forward to the next visit with some children. have a great day! "T"
