 I don’t do the time-zone thing when I travel.  Reports are that my first morning started at 4:45.Þ

 

 

 

 

 

Ü Fortunately, the hotel had entertainment – huge sharks in the lobby.  Daddy says they’re koi, but he’s wrong.

 

 

  

 

 

Þ We got an early start on the airshow.  I watched some lady ignore the fasten seat-belt sign, and go walking out on the wing of the plane.

 

 

 

 

Ü I was just sitting there, when this huge black plane just snuck up behind me.

 

 

 

 

 

Þ Fortunately, Justin was there.  He saw it, too.

 

 

 

 

Ü This plane swallows people whole.

 

 

 

 

Mommy said to look out for great music, and ladies with bouffant hair-dos.  Daddy explained that this was a different kind of B-52. Þ

 

 

 

 

 

Ü Noah and I could keep a lot of animals in here!.

 

 

 

 

 

 

I can help.  Please, I can help! Þ

 

 

 

 

Ü We got to see a B-1 stop by.

 

 

 

 

And even got to see that sneaky plane land. Þ

 

 

 

 

But we all had our favorite! 

One thing daddy couldn’t answer…When they tell us its 18” from canopy to wing, how are they measuring this?  Who is climbing out there?

 

Ü Off to see the animals.  Note the camouflage I wear – Daddy and I fit in around here.

 

 

 

 

 

Really BIG turtles! Þ

 

Ü I got to see my first real ALLIGATOR !  They’ve been a favorite for a long time!

 

 

 

Daddy lifted me over the glass so I could get a better view.Þ

Ü Daddy told me to count the heads on this snake.  I didn’t stop at one…

 

 

 

At the Snake house, we also got a primer on the circle of life..Þ

Ü Raccoons

 

 

 

and

 

 

 

MiceÞ

Ü Four baby cheetahs

 

 

 

and

 

 

 

and I read about the fennec Þ

Ü I got to see a black jaguar up close

 

 

 

but

 

 

Their swimming pool was occupied Þ

Ü Off to the Wild Animal Park

 

 

 

Shhhhhh.

 

 

Sleeping Lion  Þ

Ü Just another day ….

 

 

 

Feeding my friends !Þ

Ü Daddy was scared, but I made him do it once.

 

 

 

We took a hike, and ran into a friend up closeÞ

Ü Me and Daddy

 

 

 

Justin and I keeping an eye out for friendly birds. Þ

Ü 1 + 1 + 1 equals T…R…O…U…B…L…E

 

 

 

“Grant…. We’re going to Disneyland tonight…” Þ
