New Post, No Lion

Zoo trip!!! I took a little reimbursement day and hit up the zoo. What's that? What's reimbursement day? Well it's kind of like a vacation/personal day without all of the baggage. You see, my boss is so awesome that she reimburses me a little family time for business trips; hence, reimbursement day. Anyhoo...The Zoo!

"Hey, Simba, what do you want for dinner?"

"We haven't had tourist in a while..."

Well apparently there was a lion. You'd think I would have noticed that. Good thing they are locked up.

Animals...and there are giraffes in there too

It was a beautiful day for a zoo day: mid 70s with a cool, gentle breeze. And there was plenty of shade throughout.

"Um, Nathan, the elephant is over here. He's kinda hard to miss."

Joining us on our trip was our personal photographer.

Self-portrait of Lisa taking a picture of a Giant Tortoise. Man she's good!

She just bought a fancy new camera and was excited to do some more practicing. Actually, she was really excited about spending time with Nathan, but he's so cute, can you blame her?
