Lincoln Park Zoo

 Last weekend, mommy and daddy went to Chicago for some shopping and took me along.  Daddy and I went to the Lincoln Park zoo.  Very cool! Here I am on the carousel.


 These pictures are really cool, but need a little explanation.  There was a bear at the zoo sitting in his den.  The back of the den has a plexiglass wall, and we could go right up to the wall.  Daddy took a picture of the bear, getting us in the reflection!

The zoo also had a kiddie train that I just had to ride . . . twice. 

 Back home, I was happy to see my puppies again!

Exhasted from the trip, I passed out on the couch.  And Skye jumped onto the couch to watch over me.  This is really significant- Skye has not gotten onto the couch without help in over a year.  But I was worth jumping up there for.  Interesting.


Back home in Iowa City, mommy took me to the Tri-Delt easter egg hunt.  I found plastic eggs with chocolate inside!  yum!

I enjoyed all your photos and felt like I was enjoying these places with you. However the most fun is had by the Daddy who gets to take you to all these fun spots- it's great to be a parent or a Gran. love, Gran

The Bear picture reminded me of the book - I am on a bear hunt and I come to a window - I can't go through it and I can't go over it so I take a picture of it. Looks like a fun day and how sweet of Skye to watch over you- she and Ali are your buddies.
Love, Ada
