But, I love the zoo. I went on one of those trips recently where you spend the day with a ranger and feed all the animals. I loved the giraffes but had to climb a ladder to feed them. I was mroe scared of the ladder than the giraffe, lol!!

The kid looked to be about 7 years old. The sea lions started barking loudly. I&#39;m not sure if they were afraid or angry. Some other adult (not his mom or dad) jumped in and pulled him out. Good thing he didn&#39;t do it in a lions den.Chocolate Covered Daydreamshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04459265311205890622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3211916946754614168.post-92142231164603303732010-02-28T17:02:47.135-08:002010-02-28T17:02:47.135-08:00What a fun trip.

As soon as it warms up around here, I&#39;m heading for the Jacksonville Zoological Gardens. It&#39;s really a fantastic place and such a serene way to spend the day.<br /><br />Love you sweetie.
