As many of you know our house and family was effected by Hurricane Ike. (See previous post if you missed the details.) It has been 10 days and we still can't go home because half the city still has no power, including our home and my school district. Ben's parents are being very kind and patient with us. Ben and I are used to Lucas terrorizing everything but it's been awhile for them. We have felt very comfortable and well taken care of during this stressful time. Even still, after awhile we were starting to get a bit of cabin fever so Grandpa Ireland had a great idea to go to the zoo! It was a great day for all of us.
We finished the day at a cute little cafe with a great view of the elephants.
Ben is a bird whisperer.

Refugee or not, it was a great day.
Ben wanted me to add that the scruff on his face is an evacuee beard.

Hey that seems like a pretty cool Zoo! I didn't know Ben's parents moved. Thank goodness you can stay with them. How are you feeling?
