Chapter 5 - Fun Moments

# 1, Adding Some Color

Upon arrival Pat took his 3 girls to the spa to get some "much need work done" :)
















What a fun and perfect way to start off this amazing week.

# 2 - Wild Life



One of our FAVORITE places in Tucson, the Zoo. 
Oh we LOVE the Tucson ZOO!
I used to take the girls at least once a week and we had fun every, single time!!!

We'd get there around 10:00 AM to make sure we could feed the Giraffes first.



There are volunteers everywhere and always happy and willing to answer any question you may have.
Like when your 6 year old asks: "Why is the tongue so blue?"
Answer: The giraffe tongue is blue because it has very few blood vessels. Because of this the tongue appears to be black. The animal eats a lot of thorny/prickly plants and would bleed profusively so God/nature takes care of its own.

                                      




Mr. Peacock bunks with the "Long Necks" sometimes and showed us his BEST side!



Then we'd watch the Elephants eat.






Walk over to the Polar Bear (who apparently doesn't mind the Tucson heat,
 since his fur keeps him cool in the summer and warm in the winter). 






The we'd stare at the "old folks" for a while.





And then make our way to THE FROG. 




THE FROG was by far the most fun at the Zoo (and the water park, but it was closed ... apparently 85 F is too cold for Tucsonians to get wet :)
The Ls could easily spend an hour pushing the button and getting water splashed all over them.

May 2008







When we told L about THE FROG she was so excited to see it but when she saw it she looked at me and said "THAT is THE FROG? That little thing? And I liked it?"  ... WOW, all grown up already.

 The Camingos (Lulu for Flamingo)




The other "Camingos" or should I say "Czarningos"


The color matched for sure :)


Yes, we LOVE the Tucson Zoo!!!
