I Shall Return!

So today was my last day at the zoo; for now.  It wasn't that bad. Weeded out the Keiki Zoo garden and brushed Lani Moo.  Nothing out of the ordinary until 3-ish.  Oki, one of the head guys in the zoo, took me on a super behind the scenes of the African Safari and Reptile House.  

The Reptile House was awesome.  Got to see the komodo dragons and the Seychelles Day Gecko (which are the illegal ones loose in Manoa).  Petting the galapagos tortoise, Toby, was like petting a leather purse.  It was funny being one of two guys standing in the middle of the inclosure while all the visitors stared.

Feeding Kruger was fun.  The guy an eat whole apples and fart like there's no tomorrow, sounds like my dad....ooo burn! Ha ha.  Even the giraffes came by and ate from us.  It was pretty cool.

Reading back on this I feel like a little kid telling his parents about his day at the zoo, but you know that's exactly what it was.

I'll be returning to the zoo around November.  Hopefully by then I'll know which college has accepted me and thing in life will be rolling a little bit smoother.
