Picture it: Friday. Perfect weather. Computer system goes offline at work and everyone bails like fire ants from a stirred up mound. High noon and not a responsibility in the world. What to do?
I ran for Thor, of course, and disrupted his nap with great news. We were going to the zoo! Why not? Friday. Perfect weather. Not a responsibility in the world.
So we were off to the zoo and we spent two and a half hours walking around. It was warm enough that the animals were all out and about, but cool enough that the homo sapiens could stay out and about, too. We bought Thor a straw safari hat and he turned into Thor the Jungle Explorer, and the rest was carousel riding, gorilla watching, penguin laughing at, gator dodging, mono-rail sitting, monkey spotting, tiger sighting, pigeon chasing delight.
I am exhausted and my feet hate me, but I can't think of a better way to spend a suddenly free day.
