I swear that turtle shrunk! Okay, so maybe my son is just that much bigger...This morning I told Seth we would go see the Polar Bears at the Como Zoo. They have a newly remodeled exhibit that we have been waiting to see. We tried to push our way through the throng but really could not see a thing. It was an overwhelming disaster. I hate crowds and my son likes them even less than I do. It's called a zoo not just because the animals live there, but due to the crowds too. We hung onto each other as if our lives depended on it!
Seth declined to be in the photo so that is his hand that Eli is staring at suspiciously. After a short walk around and learning the tiger was gone, Seth proclaimed it too hot and time to go home. I couldn't complain so we left after what seemed a long hour and a half. At least we could enjoy the butterflies...they only let so many people in at once. Maybe next time we will actually get to see the polar bears...if we are lucky...or bring dad to help us through the crowds...
My "pirate" identifying butterflies. (We actually got a few gang related comments concerning the dude rag. I may not be allowing it in public again for fear of being shot at.)
I am not a huge fan of caged animals but I LOVE to sit among the butterflies. They are such a reflection of creation's beauty!
