Yesterday I went to the Zoo with my parents and my cousin.
It was really fun. we rode the train, got ice cream- i got to act like a little kid. i love the penguins, the otters, the bats, the vultures (they look so sad!)and the pygmy goat petting zoo.
The greatest part of the day, however, was when we visited the monkey cages. you one those rafiki type monkeys with the red butts? So anyways, i was standing in front of the cage with my 13-year-old cousin, and we saw this big monkey start chasing this little one. i said, "oh, how cute, they're playing." Then I noticed that the big monkey was completely erect and he jumped on the other monkey and they started humping. I was like, "Ah!" I grabbed my cousin and shoved her face out of the way, I was so startled. Then i started laughing. But She was so disturbed! She wouldn't even talk to us for half an hour! She just walked 10 feet in front of us. Poor kid.
Ah, the zoo in springtime.
