MORE HOLIDAY POTOS


A DINER WE ATE AT IN SAN DIEGO



BEAUTY ON THE OVERHEAD RIDE AT THE SAN DIEGO ZOO


BEAUTY WAS FASCINATED BY THE ELEPHANTS


THIS ANIMAL WAS OBSESSED WITH BEAUTY'S BUGGY





AT THE ZOO


There are lions and roaring tigers,

and enormous camels and things,

There are biffalo-buffalo-bisons,

and a great big bear with wings.



There's a sort of a tiny potamus,

and a tiny nosserus too -

But I gave buns to the elephant

when I went down to the Zoo!



There are badgers and bidgers and bodgers,

and a Super-in-tendent's House,

There are masses of goats, and a Polar,

and different kinds of mouse,



And I think there's a sort of a something

which is called a wallaboo -

But I gave buns to the elephant

when I went down to the Zoo!



If you try to talk to the bison,

he never quite understands;

You can't shake hands with a mingo -

he doesn't like shaking hands.



And lions and roaring tigershate saying,

"How do you do?" -

But I give buns to the elephant

when I go down to the Zoo!

Whilst we were on holdiday we went to 2 zoos.


We visited San Diego zoo and Panama City Beach Zoo and Beauty loved them both.


San Diego Zoo was amazing and it had so many animals to see that Beauty absolutely loved her visit.The other brilliant thing about the zoo was the fact that there were so many animals but they were all cared for so well.The animals all seemed very happy and healthy looking and whilst I understand the need for zoos I have never been to keen on them but this zoo was a wonderful example of how a zoo should be run.
Now Panama City Beach Zoo was the tiniest zoo I have ever been in but it was lovely and the animals did seem well cared for and happy.However, the best part of this zoo was the fact it was so small and so I felt it's size helped in making it a wonderful educational facility.We were able to wander around and because of the size easily see everything......twice! Beauty loved the giraffe best.

It took me a while to work out what was wrong with the pic of Cheyenne. And then I realized. There are no bars between you and the animal! Gulp!

An Irish Blessing

(A Blessing from St. Patrick)
May the road rise to meet you,

May the wind be always at your back,

May the sun shine warm upon your face,

May the rains fall soft upon your fields,

And, until we meet again,

May God hold you in the hollow of His hand.
