April 4th

Today Dad and I walked to the Water Park. Nelson said that it was just down the street. Yeah! - about 3 miles down the street! And the park is HUGE! There are lots of lakes and amusement rides and a zoo. We wanted to see the zoo because Jeanne had said that it was so great. Although the Humane Society wants to shut it down because the animals aren't housed well. And they're not.
The zoo is on the farthest corner from the entrance. We finally found it, paid our $3.00 entrance fee and eventually found the bears and lions and birds. The bear pit was open and you cannot believe all the food that the people were throwing to the bear!
We were very tired but we couldn't find the exit! We asked about 4 people and we had a map to show them. We finally found it and then we were going to get a taxi to go to a restaurant and eat. There was a man sitting in a van and Dad started talking to him. He offered to take us to the restaurant. He was waiting for his family and they hadn't come out yet. So we let him drive us to a restaurant! Always an adventure! He spoke English and he was very nice.
