Update to the Mission Report and Excursion to the LA Zoo

It's official - our - Son 1's grade is in and *drum roll please* he got a perfect score!  You could have knocked me over with a feather.  Son 1's teacher is a very hard grader and is one of those teachers who gives everyone a 'C'.

Here it is, the perfect score.

 Back to our regular programing...

Excursion to the LA Zoo.  I don't think I've ever been to the LA Zoo, but it is possible that my Mom will comment on here and correct me :)  Anyway, we decided to take a quick road trip on Sunday before the Super Bowl.

We had a quick drive out and found the Zoo.

Front Gate

 In all honesty the Zoo was a bit depressing.  Most enclosures were small, the layout was haphazard and the map/signage was horrible.  The kids enjoyed seeing the animals though, here are some highlights:

Black necked swans are back there somewhere.

Flamingos were stinky

Indian Rhino was cool

Giraffes were tall

Elephant!

Heading home

I don't think we will be back anytime soon.  It's pretty tough to compete with the Safari Park and San Diego Zoo.  Although our favorite is still the Living Desert our in Palm Desert.

Happy Monday and have a great week!
