Wandering Along the Path: Right Speech

It was foggy this morning as we headed out with our younger daughter, her husband and their son, but by the time we got to the zoo in the city it was sunny and balmy.  We usually go to the zoo by us, but they don't have rhinoceroses, hippos, gorillas or anteaters.  So we concentrated on the animals our grandson expressed a desire to see, and it was fun.  This zoo used to be a disgrace, and we hadn't been in over a decade, but now the enclosures are much bigger and more suited to the animals, and they've added beautiful gardens everywhere.  The plants and flowers alone were worth the price of admission.  We especially lingered over the penguins and lemurs.  There was a South American section, a walkabout, a Matagaskar section, an African savannah section and more.  Even the cafe was much better than before.   Our grandson was thrilled with it all, and exhausted enough that after lunch we headed home.  He'd seen some animals in books come to life, and he was mighty satisfied.
