So We Tried the Zoo….
…but things didn’t go according to plan. Today was veterans’ day at the Zoo, and since my grandfather had given us some wristbands for admission/parking/etc., my mother and I decided to take Nick and meet up with my brother, his girlfriend, and their respective kids. All was going according to plan until Nick had a complete meltdown in front of the “monkey island,” and nothing seemed to help make the situation any better. Ultimately we made our way out of the Zoo and came back home, which is a little bit of a disappointment given that the whole day was going to be free.
Though I’m disappointed, I’m still glad we were able to get out and enjoy the beautiful weather for a little while, and there’ll be plenty of other opportunities to visit the Zoo.
