Zoo day with Anja

I took my 13 year old cousin to the zoo today, so we could spend some quality time together. Other than the day starting off rainy and overcast, getting pooped on by a "cute" little bird in the aviary...it was a pretty nice day. I have season passes to the zoo, thanks to my mom and dad, so I will be going more frequently I guess.  

They have a new sting ray exhibit,  Sting Ray Bay. It was smaller than expected, similar to Sea World's though.  I bought some fish to feed them, which was sort of a waste of money because everytime they came near us and tried to eat it we would scream. They were bigger and faster than I had pictured. I fed them a few times, then just threw the fish in their and let them go at it. 

I had my first experience with being "pooped on" by a bird. It was uh, well, gross. The best part of the whole thing was that it was on my face and the front of my shirt. Great timing, right? I laughed about it though. You cant take crap so seriously in this world, ya know.
