Our favorite Zoo had a tropical day today.
There was a man playing Calypso music on the steel drums, sand art and a huge sand box inside.
It was such a joy to take off shoes and socks and get in there to build a few dozen sand castles.

Baby, don't worry 'bout a thing. Every little thing gonna be alright. |

The leftovers. |
Every kid got a free pail and shovel, and we made good use of them.
 |
Playing in the sand. |
 |
Sandy fingers. |
Then we made our way around the tropics trail and Minnesota trail.
 |
Astride the bronze tortoise. |
 |
Cold! |
We had a nutritious lunch.
 |
Hot Dogs for lunch. |
We even got some up close time with some of the wildlife.

Creeping up on the sparrow. |

Oops. There it goes! |
Hooray for the Zoo, and hooray for Abraham Lincoln and George Washington, and hooray for my kids.
How did I not know about that! Sounds like such a blast!
