A Day at the Zoo

We hadn't been at the zoo in a while, so Good Friday seemed a good day to go. Most of the Orthodox and Muslim population of our very Catholic town obviously thought the same, so we gleefully walked the pathways in clouds of heavy Russian perfumes and aromatic Arab fragrances. We did work our way further down the list of animals to see, crossing off the rhinos (feeding), the pink pelicans (parading), the bears (sleeping) and the Rocky Mountain goats (looking like something out of "Lord of the Rings"). Biggest hit were the fighting geese though, who definitely made the WWF look like an Emily Post class.
