We took the kids to the zoo this afternoon, and the weather was warm and beautiful. The boys are never all that interested in seeing the actual animals, but stand in awe at the different animal poops, and the monkeys with the bright red butts. They also like to see what the animals eat and all the "garbage" in their cages. They like the train, and they especially like the snake house and always try to find the kind of rattlesnake that almost killed us on a hike this summer. The kids played at the zoo park for a little while and Dave and I made fun of the various funny looking kids and parents. I took Emma over the board walk to look at the ducks, and this snot-nosed kid with a roll of quarters stood across from us pelting the ducks with the food he bought. I felt like I ought to say something, especially with the amount of quarters he had, but a part of me identified with him, and I probably would have done the same thing, had no one been around. After the park we went to the Olive Garden for dinner and the waiter knocked over Dave's coke into mine and Dawson's lap. Dave and I exchanged a few 'Why didn't we just hit McDonalds' looks through the meal, but all in all it was a good day.
