Yesterday we celebrated at the school with a family picnic. There were about 500 hot dogs on the buffet alongside various trays of fruit, pasta salads, chips, popcorn, and desserts. Miss Tori made a slide show with the highlights of the past year in the Yellow Room. She is excited for her summer break but you could tell she's become attached to her students.
Today was the big zoo field trip. Each student needed at least one adult chaperone. We met up in the ticketing area at 9:30am and entered the zoo as a group. George quickly hooked up with his favorite playmates Zion and Evan. We all saw the brand new multimillion dollar elephant enclosure. The elephants were inside the building though.
After the elephants we hopped the tram and rode up to the sharks (and the rest of the primates and aquatic life but the only thing the boys wanted to see was the sharks.) We were all more than ready to meet up with the rest of the group for lunch when we were done with the sharks. All the boys opted for McDonald's.
We had enough time after lunch to see the rhinos, monkey island, the giraffes, the butterfly garden, all the bears and a few other miscellaneous animals. I have to say my favorite part was the naked mole rat exhibit in the elephant building. George claims he doesn't remember enough to pick a favorite.
