We went to the zoo today. It was overcast and the animals were active. Ronan spent much of the trip saying, "El-phant. El-phant." When we finally, actually reached the elephants, he spent about 30 seconds looking at them. Of course, it's hard to compete with throwing little seed pods over the bamboo fence, which is what he spent almost 20 minutes doing.

Ronan's little friend Lucy was also there. We were all watching the little darting capuchin monkeys. Suddenly Lucy's eyes got huge and she started crying. She obviously got spooked by something. My theory is that the monkeys spoke to her; maybe told her some monkey secret. That would freak me out for sure!

The snow leopards were beautiful and aloof, haughtily ignoring us as they lapped water from the pond. I saw them sizing up Lucy and Ronan out of the corner of their eyes, though. I'm sure our toddlers looked like tasty treats...
