San Diego Zoo can't compete with lollipops and fiberglass rocks
Liam and I headed downtown to take in the splendor that is the San Diego Zoo. We joined no less than 39 other stroller pushing Mommies as we raced to the furthest outpost - the Elephant Odyssey!
Liam was modestly ammused by the big beasts and squirmed to be freed from stroller captivity. He promptly ran face first into the tusk of an elephant statue and burst into furious tears. Calmed by his Bubba and puffies, he endured being shown the great cats lolling in the sun. "Lollipop" he demanded and started to climb through the cactus gardens despite Mam's warnings of big time owies.
Then we decided to ride the skytram across the park. Not impressed. But do you know what was big fun? A fiberglass rock in the monkey exhibit. He played on it in delight while ACTUAL monkey and apes were eating and doing cute things in the background.
Exit through the gift shop: I decided to save my money when the items that seemed to interest him he thought were candy and the things I wanted cost $36.
We'll try again next week. Maybe he'll have matured.
