05/22/09 Friday...today!
On Friday we woke up and worked off all the ice cream we ate the night before. We got some coffee from the lobby and Adam made a delicious breakfast--scrambled eggs with tomatoes and turkey lunch meat on a slice of whole wheat bread with some melted cheese. YUM!!! We showered up and then walked down to the main street, and thankfully caught a jitney pretty quickly. We got dropped off at Arawak Cay and went back to the Fish Fry restaurant where we got a to-go order of conch fritters and french fries, then we went to Ardastra Gardens & Zoo. SO MUCH FUN! They had tons of parrots and birds, two jaguars, some monkeys, and iguanas.
We got to go into a bird cage and feed little birdies, we held apples in our hands and they landed and munched away. Adam is definitely a bird person, they just loved him. He also made friends with a parrot in another section of the zoo--wherever he moved, it would follow. I, on the other hand, got chased by a regal looking bird and got a rooster to run around it's cage with me. We also watched a "marching" flamingos show, which wasn't too exciting but they are so neat to see in person. They just let them (and a peacock) roam around the zoo so I got some cool pics.
Lemur!

It was so neat to see them up close, they are just so bizzaro
Hello little bird!
This one was looking a little ragged, maybe he's overworked
Face off
Gimme that apple!
Another one coming in for a landing!
Our new family
Why are they so cute??
Munching away
Just the four of us
Cracking up!
This guy really liked me
