wildlife world zoo

today, panzer visited the wildlife world zoo and aquarium.  they have lots of monkeys and birds, which was cool because those are the same animals that ride on the bus on a show he is obsessed with, so he kept saying "hi papaya" to all the tropical birds.

P rode the skyride with me and saw the animals from above, including the camels that were "pushing" each other.  i think he had fun but i was terrified and promised him any number of bribes to get him to calm down once he decided he was "done flying in the sky" halfway through.

 he tried to feed the giraffe, but was stingy, only passing out one pellet at a time.  the giraffe quickly lost interest.

he spent a lot of time inspecting this guy and naming all of his parts.  here they are, comparing teeth.

P would not participate in the touch tank even though mommy set a good example and (for the first time ever!!!) touched the horseshoe crab, the urchin and the starfish.  proof that parenthood makes you crazy.
