So yesterday I had the most amazing time at the zoo....and so did my kids! I am also enjoying my new found "skill" of putting a slide show together.(for some reason the images aren't as great as the other show I did and the music kinda drags/skips....I will have to work on that)... So here is the day....It was first of all a beautiful day...not too hot. I got a lot of great pics of kids, my favorite subject.....plus my friend Lisa, who works with the marine animals took us behind the scenes....so while everyone else was coming in for the dolphin show, we got to go play with the dolphins, kiss the dolphins, high five the dolphins, do tricks....how fun! I think what surprised all of us, was how much more fun the walrus was! He or she makes the most funny sounds and the way he or she eats is hilarious! They have this amazing sucking power...it sounded like those vaccum tubes at the bank! And man were his kisses slobbery and full of suction!!!! Enjoy the pics.

I haven't tried this, but I think this would be a really fun way to "travel" around the world with the kids...hey, and it would save some cash too. These kits also come with after dinner trivia....how fun is that. Since I love to cook and love to try new things this may a fun way to introduce other cultures right here at home! Plus I love the idea of having all the spices delivered without hunting them down from 5 different stores! What do you think?
