#Summer

I'm trying to make the best out of every summer day and sometimes that means letting someone else direct.  Today, Coco was our activities director and she picked the zoo...somewhat at random because she's never had interest in visiting the zoo before.  She's not a natural animal lover like me so I jumped on the idea, nevermind the torrential rain forecasted.  We arrived approximately 20 minutes before the skies opened up.  We kept pressing on through the rain and made it all the way to the park to see the elephants.  And elephants are funny in the rain - running out of their enclosure to enjoy a nice natural shower.  Coco, on the other hand, decided she'd had enough of the rain and wanted to head back to the car.  We did get to see quite a few furry, feathery, and scaly friends but not for very long.  Next time we'll mind the weather forecast.  And of course when we got home, the sun came out.
