A hot summer day...

It is hot and sticky out. Abby and I got up and went to the zoo first thing this morning. We arrived there only about 15 minutes after they opened, and left by 10:40, and we were still sweaty, thirsty, and worn out. Abby was on a mission at the zoo. She likes to move rapidly through the animals and she knows what she wants to see next. We got to see the new koalas. They are only here for a few months. Abby claims they were her favorites, but really all they did was sleep in a tree while we were there.



After we finished walking through the Plains area, she decided she wanted to see the "kitty cats". I can tell you that our zoo does not have house cats, what she meant was "Meerkats". She remembered the "cat" part. It also grosses me out because she always wants to see all the snakes. Yuck. The Meerkats are much cuter than this picture, but it was the one they had on the zoo's website.



Also, today Matt is coming home! He has been gone all week for a work trip. He is ready to come home, and I am ready for him to be home. I don't have anything planned for the evening. I thought we could maybe grab a bite to eat, but he may be maxed out on out-to-eat after his trip. We'll see.
