I have this thing about zoos and not going to them. They tend to be very hypocritical with supporting conservation efforts for keeping wild animals in the wild, while simultaneously shoving a wild animal in a pint sized enclosure, with barely any stimulation. But I must say I was impressed by how large and well maintained the enclosures were at Oakland Zoo. They helped me feel less guilty about us bringing B there for his 1st birthday. And I'm so glad we did, it was a lot of fun!
Took brown t-shirt paint, wrote "1" on the back and "IT'S MY BIRTHDAY" on the front chest pocket.
Easy peasy custom b-day tee.
He kept laughing at the siamang that was howling and swinging from the trees. On our way out he chose a little monkey stuffie from the souvenir shop. It makes monkey noises when you press it's belly.
Next best thing to a real one I suppose.
