Well - 3 years ago today, Dan and I were in Southwest Harbor, Maine on our honeymoon. I believe at about this time we were enjoying some champagne and watching the video from our wedding - 'yesterday' : )
It was so fun being in SW Harbor - it is such a neat little place! I would highly recommend going there someday : )
Anyways - yesterday we casually woke up, missed phone calls from my grandparents {sorry!} and drove to 2 different libraries in hopes of finding free passes to the MN Zoo.... to no avail... HOWEVER, I did find tickets for $6 on craigslist.com! We were even able to pick them up that day! So we got out the door quickly to give the dogs some exercise, came back, showered, got ready and left for the tickets and the Zoo! I was so excited because I haven't been there since I was 1 1/2 years old - meaning, I have never been there before! ; )
My favorite things to see were probably the 8 or so miniature sea otters that were all curled/huddled in a ball together playing, but then stopped to take potty breaks where they each, one by one went poo and pee in the same spot.... weird huh?! I also liked leopard and tigers : ) Sooo pretty.
To be honest, I am kind of disapointed that the MN Zoo doesn't have elephants, giraffe, gorillas, koalas, more unique monkeys, kangaroos, awesome raptors/eagels/birds of prey and such. I do understand that having the animals they do, they can all survive outside in a MN winter {the Amur tiger is from Russia, the snow monkies, the leopard, bison and such} but it would be cool to see some of those other things.
I really want to go the the Milwaukee Zoo now and the Shedd Aquarium..... Someday.....
Well - we only have 11 more weddings left this year! Two are this weekend! It is amazing to me how FAST this summer has gone - I can hardly believe it! All I can keep thinking is how before I know it I am going to be dancing at my own child's wedding! AH! This just helps keep me grounded in remembering to appreciate each day that much more - and Thank God for it : )
Love to you all,
~KB : )
