You don't understand - we walked past the monkey cage again five hours later; the mere sight of us pissed them off again... :lol:

Those monkeys will be long gone - but it would be good to see the reaction.

I cannot go to PTA zoo - has to do with a gorilla and I am not going to go into it :shock:

LOL - the Gorilla cage houses a male and a female. Well we arrive and I meet my friend outside the Gorilla house and we hug and chit chat as women are wont to do. We notice that he is "busy" with his lady and we decide to go and see the vultures until he is done. Well he eventually finishes and we go to the cage. He is sitting on the step at the top of his hill. I start taking pictures and my friend moves away to watch the kids. Next thing he gets up and walks down the steps. He stands up and displays his masculinity to all who will watch. :shock: Talk about big. Well his lady did not like this and she started throwing fruit at me. I now give that cage a wide berth :lol:

Well we are at the elephants and I am taking photos - lots of photos. Concentrating on zooming in and focusing on the eyes and trunk. People are watching the elephant and then they begin watching me. I zoom out a little and something seems wrong. I continue to take photos and then it dawns on me - the elephant has 5 legs. I look up and stare some more and click - it is NOT a leg. Eveyone is fascinated at me supposedly photographing the elephants 5th leg :shock: I nearly died. I turned and walked away - very quickly.
