Well, as subdued as yesterday was, today's adventures with Grammy were completely out-of-this-world. Rather than trek into the city on a gloomy day, we decided to give the Reston Zoo (in the suburbs) a first try. Take it from somebody who used to work at several world-class zoos and aquariums: this was no zoo, it was a glorified petting station. Which, of course, was perfect for a 3-year-old and her animal-loving Grammy!! Katie got to pet and feed a wide variety of animals. Yes, of course, there were the normal kinds of animals like goats, sheep, and cows. But, she also got to feed a kangaroo, an ostrich, and a camel! And, as you can see in the pictures to the right, I don't know who delighted more....the preschooler or the grammy! Please take a look at the photo album to see some satisfied customers.
