HOT HOT HOT

We went to the zoo today with my parents. My mom insisted even though it was sweltering outside.

Today we visited the Wild Kingdom pavilion: lots of bugs and creepy crawly things. :blech:

We visited the jungle. She just likes to try and touch the waterfalls. :eyeroll:

We visited the Budgee Experience: a large caged enclosure that you walk into and its filled with budgies and a cockatiel or two (weird). Anyway, you can actually get them to perch on your finger. They were so hot, though that they weren't real interested in that. You can also purchase birdseed sticks. Some lady gave Brie one to use and she thought it was so cool the birdie would eat off the stick she had. She is fearless! I hate birds.

Lastly, we visited the aquarium. She likes hugging the fake penguins. She even says penguin. Then in the gift shop, she went shopping. Gigi already said she'd buy her something so Brie picked out a $14 penguin, which I put back on the shelf. Then, we went back through a second time and she latched onto $5 turtle. She hugged that sucker for dear life!

Anway, it was a no nap day except for the hour trip home. Then she cried when we pulled in and up until we laid her down to sleep. Then she chatted up there for about 45 minutes and is now sleeping.
