| We did have a lovely time! I hope everyone got home before this evening's torrential downpour began just a little while ago. Thanks for posting the photo of the hippo - I was too impatient to wait for it to unsubmerge from its green water hole to snap a shot. |

I missed seeing the polar bears - wonder why that area was closed? Maybe they're on tour...
If botanas are anywhere near as tasty as Spanish tapas, I'm in too!

Sorry to miss you guys... had to take the kid to the airport to ship him back to dad. *sniff* Was gonna go to a MexTESOL meeting but I laid down on the couch for a 15 min nap and got up 4 hours later... 
Speaking of Cheetos... whoever decided to put chile powder on Cheetos was a genious. |
