Where the Wild Things Are

With summer drawing to a close, I decided I needed an outing with the grandkids. So the cute and cuddlies and I headed for where the wild things hang out. Wait! I have that backwards. The wild things and I went to visit the cute and cuddlies. Turns out, there has been a lot of cuddlin' going on at the Zoo. Witness the three Amur tiger cubs, the baby elephant and the baby giraffe. The tigers and elephant were not available to visit as they are still "bonding" with their mumsies, but we did see the baby giraffe. How cute is that?


There is also an amazing bird show at our Zoo. Huge falcons and the like fly so low you literally have to duck to avoid collision. No lie! Afterwards, Scott got his photo taken with the bald eagle. Those birds of prey are really majestic.
The kids had lots of fun on the carousel, the train and at the playground. Scott also twisted my arm for the BIG bag of kettle corn. He "promised" he could eat it all and after about five hours, he did.
