Needless to say, Princess & I aren't doing a whole lot today. Watching Nightmare Before Xmas for now - her favorite.

Zoo visit.
Expressway buggered. The radio says: it's partly zoo traffic. We decided to go to the zoo on the first nice Saturday of the year. This is like trying to park in Manhattan, or trying to eat at a modern theme restaurant near a shopping area on a Saturday night. If you visit the Philadelphia zoo and it's more than normally crowded, you are told at the very last possible minute to turn right and go to an alternate parking area. This leads to the West Philly neighborhoods next to the zoo, some of the worst neighborhoods in the city. We waited in line, in the right-hand shoulder, for what seemed like forever to try to get into this alternate parking lot. But as we were 5 cars away, they stopped letting cars in -- it was full. But then zoo workers walked down to talk to every car in line, a block and a half, to tell us that if we just parked where we were - we'd then be in legal street parking, and it would be free. Massive hedgehog was massive. Curious rare marmoset was curious. Dramatic prairie dawg was dramatic. I almost got this shot. At the lunch place, it took the people just forever to get through a line of 10 people. Just forever, and it was hot dogs, pizza, and fries and cokes. By the time we were next in line, somebody wanted to pay credit, and the woman pulled out one of the old deals where you swipe the thing over the credit card carbon paper. Dramatic polar bear would not go in the water for the dramatic water shot. But would lean over the rock for the dramatic rock shot. Grumpy armored hippo was grumpy in the heat. We did almost 3 hours in the crowd. It was OK. People, don't take kids in strollers to the zoo. They aren't old enough to comprehend it and the strollers are painful in the crowd. |

The side of a peacock we don't often see.

Zoo pix! I love animal photos. I wish animals would take our photos sometime, too - it seems only fair.

Double rainbow on the 405 Freeway, at about 70 mph.
