To each their own.

I know, I know. Some people think that we have a problem, others may not. Some people may also like to just stay at home and watch the nature channel; we do too, we like the nature channel but we love to go out and see the animals for ourselves, so yes we did go to another zoo. Again. On our family trip we went to the Hogle Zoo on our last day. Their new exhibits and enclosures were pretty cool. Myka and Adri got to see a polar bear and seals for the first time! How cool is that to be right up close where only a little glass separates you from reaching out and touching a polar bear? The whole zoo was great, it always is since we go to this specific zoo once a year but the girls are at a stage where they are really understanding things now and their respect and curiosity toward animals, insects, birds and fish is simply inspiring. So yes, to all you critics who say we go to the zoos to often, we did go to a zoo and loved every minute of it. Adri and Myka are full of explaining what are the different animals "natural habitats," what is special about each animal, bird or bug and how to treat them. Who knows maybe they will be zoologists or marine biologist or some other gist when they grow up. Then again, they could be cool moms who take there kids to the zoo a lot so they can make discoveries for themselves instead of learning everything from the t.v. So there!
