Avery is in the gifted program in his elementary school. Their big end of the year project was studying animal habitats and making dioramas, power point presentations and writing reports about their assigned habitat. Their activity was going to the zoo! I was able to find a sitter for the little kids and go with Avery. It was such a treat to spend the day with him at the zoo, we don't get much one on one time. He's a funny (and fun!) kid! We walked around with another boy who's parents weren't able to come. Since we drove down just the two of us we decided to stay an extra hour or so after the school group left. We rode the train, the tram, the African sky safari, fed animals, traveled from Australia to Africa and had so much fun hanging out. The only snag was that our lunches were in the school van, but the teacher got caught in line in Africa and couldn't get back to us at the assigned lunch time, so that ate up (ha!) some of our exploring time waiting for that, and the kids were starving by the time we ate! Other than that it was wonderful!
