Rackham Fountain - Hipstamatic app! |
Today, my brother (Jeremy, brother #5) and his family (Rocking Robyn and their son, Mr. Energy), as well as my sister Lorna, introduced me to geocaching. To put it simply:
Geocaching is a global treasure hunting game. Participants hide & seek hidden physical containers, called geocaches, outdoors and then share their adventures online.
The Detroit Zoo has four of them hidden there, and, as beginner's luck would have it, I found the first one first time out! (I hope I'm not breaking any unwritten rules by posting the pics here - I'm a newbie!) And, in case you were wondering.... there's an app for that!
We also saw SO many amazing animals today, also. They were posing for us! I've tried to select only a handful, but there are SO many!
This is the peacock I p*ssed off! It charged me! Look how close it got! |
Hope you enjoyed my little tour of the local zoo. It's an amazing place to get your Vitamin Z!

I do miss going to the zoo. When my boys were small, we always had an annual membership. We went at least once a week. I wish the Belle Isle Aquarium was still open, I miss that too!

ReplyDeleteThe Aquarium Society just got a grant to refurbish the roof of the building. One step closer to their ultimate goal of reopening.
The group is motivated and working hard. I'd not be surprised to see the doors open again in a couple of short years.
