To the Zoo
Still catching up on posts...
Bailee and I went to the zoo with Trin and her girls while I was on maternity leave. It was really fun. I loved the bird show.
The oddest thing happened when we left the giraffe building. There was an older man who holding a giraffe pelt for the kids to feel. It just seemed wrong to me that someone would be encouraging kids to touch dead giraffe skin after they just finished seeing the live ones. He wasn't dressed like a keeper, but he had a name tag that said "Volunteer". What if he was just some guy who got a kick out of messing with kids? Just some of the thoughts that crossed my mind.
Ironically, looking back at the pictures, I didn't take any of the animals.

Looks like fun. Maybe he really was a volunteer and since the kids couldn't touch the real thing he was giving them the next best option? lol. But it is definately more interesting to think he is some freaky man who walks around with a giraffe pelt!
