WHAT A DAY WE HAD AT THE BIRMINGHAM ZOO.
WE TOOK OUR OWN CHILDREN AND NOW WE ADDED NEW BEAUTY TO THE ZOO... THIS VERY DAY! YES, WE TOOK OUR LITTLE GRAND-DAUGHTER WITH US FOR THE 1ST TIME. WHAT A GRANDE DAY IT WAS.ONE THING, I GOT TO SEE GRAND-DADDY WITH LITTLE BIT RIDING A CAMEL.
VERY SWEET CAMEL, I MIGHT ADD. ALL OF THE ANIMALS LOOKED VERY WELL TAKEN CARE OF. ONE THING FOR SURE...IT WAS ONE OF THE HOTTEST DAYS WE HAVE HAD AT THE ZOO. I WAS THANKFUL FOR THE SHADED AREAS WHERE WE COULD LOWER OUR BODY TEMPERATURE. IT WAS A BEAUTIFUL DAY ON THE WHOLE. OUR SWEETHEART DID NOT SEEM TO MIND. SHE WAS SO EXCITED ABOUT THE ANIMALS, ESPECIALLY THE TIGER,
AND WAS NOT THE LEAST BIT AFRAID OF RIDING THE CAMEL. WE TOOK THE TRAIN RIDE. SHE LIKED THAT.
WE ATE LUNCH THERE SHE FEED THE PEACOCKS SOME OF HER LUNCH AND SOME OF MINE! THE PEACOCKS ROAM FREE BUT I AM NOT SURE IF THEY CAN ROAM THROUGH-OUT THE PARK OR NOT. WE LOVED WATCHING THE MONKIES.
I WAS SURPRISED THAT WE DID NOT SEE ANY ELEPHANTS. WE ASKED AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY WERE GETTING A WHOLE HERD NEXT YEAR. THAT WOULD BE WONDERFUL TO SEE. WE GOT TO WATCH A MOMMA HIPPO WITH HER BABY, THAT WAS NEAT. IT WAS, ALSO, NEAT TO HEAR ALL OF THE DIFFERENT SOUNDS AS WE WALKED THRU THE ZOO. WE ARE SO BLESSED TO HAVE THIS LITTLE ONE WHO IS JUST A PLEASURE TO TAKE AND BE WITH... ALMOST BLOWS MY MIND BUT SHE IS A "SWEETHEART" AND THIS IS JUST A TRUE STATEMENT ABOUT HER. THANK YOU, FATHER, FOR THIS LITTLE ONE... GRAND-MOMMA'S SWEETHEART! ALSO, FATHER, FOR SUCH GREAT KIDS WHO SHARE THEIR PRECIOUS GIFT WITH US, TOO !
