Wha????

Cass, are you shocked that we didn't go see the condors (I used to know 2 women who worked in the condor release program in the Ventana Wilderness) or have you not been there since they built it?

I go by the philosophy of "Live each visit to the San Diego Zoo and/or Wild Animal Park as if it were your last. Ooh, condors!!"

I can understand that. But we already have one other trip concretely planned and we'll also go in December when they have the holiday lights up in the Wild Animal Park. And we have a membership so it pays to amoratize by going often.

I've never seen the Animal Park. The zoo is great, though.

The Zoo is great. The Wild Animal Park is also excellent, but different. It's pretty cool that they've developped to parks that are close, similar but have totally different appeals.

I also love the idea that over 500 babies are born at the WAP each year.

Hey, it's more than anyone else thought to do for me while I was in the States.

I try to be a good hostess.

Oooh! Can I offer to find out? For the team, I mean... Mmmm, Keifer.

I love the idea that they're not talking about the animals. "Darling, we have to get to the delivery room now!" "But I haven't seen the burrowing owls yet! Just one more-- ooooh, that was a big one..."

Ha. no they were talking about the animals.

I'd like a baby rhino and a baby giraffe.

Well, the condors are right next to the bighorn sheep and I love the bighorn sheep (I saw two in Joshua Tree Monument National Park!!!!) so I go there first usually.

But I agree with the going early and often to the Zoo and WAP with memberships.

I love all of the babies at both places. Makes me feel like we are doing something to help out the animal world instead of just destroying it.

I reckon he cries a lot afterwards. But in Australia we recently got up to Jack torturing his girlfriend's husband, and I swear I saw a glimmer of recognition in Audrey's eyes.

He's been through too much trauma, it has to have affected him. Plus, in the words of Jeff, all I'm saying is why reject the only evidence we have?

You realise that you can't just mate a giraffe with a rhino and expect this result, right?

I say I say I say. What do you get if you cross a giraffe with an alsatian?
A watchdog for the 8th floor. Ba dum.

I love the early AM animal visits (we've seen Tigers at both places, but the zoo one is impossible to see at any time after 10:00, I hear).

We've seen bighorn sheep in the wild, even in the canyon you drive between Nevada/Utah on the 15. They're pretty amazing. Next time, we'll definitely go see the condors and sheep.

We were busy with the super charismatic megafauna.

Yes. I realize.

Also, I realize you can't just scoop up a baby rhino because they feed with mom for 2 years before they are weaned.

Rhinos are painfully cute.
