A Day at the Central Park Zoo

16 years ago - #NYC#zoo

Kevin had just started radiation. We wanted to do something special on the weekend. Our plans were to go to the Bronx Zoo, but the weather was not good and neither was Kevin's energy level. So we decided to go to the Central Park Zoo instead. We invited our friends Bob & Larry.

Jeff happens to know someone that works at the Central Park Zoo, so Nicole got us all in for free, which was nice.

This was my first visit to the Central Park Zoo. It was small, but surprisingly nice.

This was also the debut of Kevin's blond mohawk. He had decided that if there was a chance that he was going ot lose his hair during radiation, that he was going to go out with a bang.

There's a certain part of my brain that is eight years old, is happy to be eight years old, and will always be eight years old. For instance, I am eternally grateful that I was eight years old when Star Wars came out. If I had to be born at any time, I'm glad that I was alive to be a kid when those first three Star Wars movies came out.
Thursday: Chateaus of Provence
Today we started by driving out to hit some of the chateaux (castles) of the area. We went to Chateau Barben, which is right next to the local zoo. The grounds were fantastic, but the only way to see it was to go with the tour, which we had just missed. We decided to come back.
