We’re going to the zoo, zoo, zoo!
Just a quick post to share the cuteness of the animals at the Oregon Zoo, even on a rainy day.
I was hoping to be able to offer a more culinary post about how I love the food service at the zoo, but we hit the zoo at a painfully slow time and they didn’t have the AfriCafe open when we went in for lunch, so I didn’t get my favorite ZooFries. They rock.
The polar bears have been my favorite since I was little, and I saw them lots and lots of times over the years, especially the summers I spent doing shows in the zoo with the Young People’s Theatre Project, and I have never seen them as active as they were yesterday. It was amazing! They were wrestling, diving into the water and playing like puppies. Totally cute.
Because of the dreary day, though, most of the animals had the same instinct that I had when the day started - to curl up and take a nap. All in all, a fun day, even if it lacked the requisite ZooFries. Maybe next time!
Yeah Scandinavia!!!!! Let us know how your master plan is shaping up. Woo hoo!
Farmer’s market season is just around the corner. You’ll be happy for Portland in a month or two, trust me.
