Hot day @ the zoo




Needing to get out of the house for a change we headed over to oakland to go see what the animals had been up to. Well, it was soooo hot we cheated partially by riding the sky ride to see the elephants, lions, camels and buffalos. It was so warm we couldn't enjoy walking around. We did make it down to pet the goats and watch the flying foxes(a bat variety) fight over the spraying sprinklers. :) We learned that this giraffe had broken it's leg when it was one. So it had to spend alot of time indoors to rehabilitate. Well, now he won't socialize with the other giraffes properly and he's picky about how he's fed. Notice the bucket. He only eats out of a bucket and because he spends so much time with his nose in a bucket he has a lighter face then the rest of the giraffes. (Ps. this is one of the dresses I made Lola and she really loves wearing it. big smile)
