Zoo!

Those are real flamingos! Real ones! Noisy and feathery and everything!

The New Orleans zoo is pretty spectacular. Elephants and wildebeasts (also known as gnus) and zebras and rhinoceri and antelopes and gazelles and alligators and lions and tigers and bears and giraffes and ALL KINDS OF MONKEYS and apes and snakes and fish and turtles and big cats that have a dozen names (puma etc) and capybaras and ostriches and king vultures (look them up they're surprisingly beautiful) and... wow. After the zoo we stopped for tea, the set out for lunch at the Acme Oyster House... ;-)

  1. I miss the zoo- I haven't been there in way too long. I'm glad y'all had fun, though- today was a beautiful day for it.
