i went to the zoo! we all got up early. mom fed me and we got ready. dana got up too. we said our goodbyes to gdad and out the door we went. dana drove us to ronnie's house and we picked him up. dana drove and drove. it seemed like forever but it's really only like 1.5hrs to washington dc. we parked outside the city and took the train in. we got to ride the train!
not only did we ride the train but we even had to switch trains to go where we wanted. it was all very exciting. there are lights on the platform and they flash when a train is coming into the station. since it's saturday it wasn't really busy. mom says during the week you can't move for all the people in suits.
got to the zoo. it was pretty good. we saw some animals. i was more interested in finding and eating a snow cone. i told mom that was really the only thing i wanted to do. i want a snow cone, just like on penguins of madagascon. so we ate some lunch. i got some fruit and yoghurt, nice and refreshing. everyone ate their food and we set off. dana found a snow cone stand down near the small mammal house. we went in and saw all the different small mammal- mostly monkeys. that was good. when we got out it was snow cone time! i got a lemon flavored one and ronnie got strawberry. we walked down a little hill and found a nice shady bench to sit on. i had to share my snow cone with mom, eye roll. it was good. we walked around a little more and saw things like turtles and gorillas before going back to the train for our ride home.
we had a really nice day out. ronnie and i both fell asleep in the car going home. dana stopped for ice cream. since i was alseep i didn't get a choice. i had to share mom's peanut butter cookie blizzard thing. it was ok. she ate a bunch and then put my part in the freezer. i got to eat it after my dinner.
now i'm just going to cuddle with blueberry
