The Zoo











The day after the wedding, most of us went to the zoo with all the kiddos. On the way there, Christianne, Gabriela, Mina, and Andrew all fell asleep. Thank goodness they woke up to check out all the exhibits. The zoo was huge, we were only able to check out part of it, but we had a great time all together. We saw condors with 10 foot wing spans, tons of parrots, both in and outside of exhibits, and a pregnant lion, even!


Poor Christianne had to use the restroom at the zoo. I tried to prep her for what she was going to experience. Theresa said she walked out with a look of utter disgust. The worst part for Christianne though, was that she had to pay to use the potty, and they didn't even have toilet paper. She also "treated" Auntie Theresa and Andrew since Theresa didn't bring her wallet with her. Good thing Uncle Tim paid Christianne the night before for giving him a back massage! We told her it's all part of the international experience. I'm not sure how much of a consolation that was to her.

It looks like the zoo had some nice exhibits. I was glad the children had a kid-friendly afternoon. The ride up the coast must have been nice too.
