Des has really up’d his game on napping this weekend, nearly three hours each day.
With normal spring temperatures returning, it was a nice day for a late afternoon trip to the zoo. Des likes to take in all the exotic wildlife, like ducks, for example.
Although monkeys are certainly a favorite too

The big news in Omaha last month was the arrival of six new elephants rescued from drought-stricken Swaziland. The elephants were finally settling into their new home and went on display last Wednesday. It was late enough in the day that we had relatively uncrowded viewing.

As tall as our little man is, he doesn’t quite measure up to a baby elephant.
“Sure dad, I’ll pause here for a split second while you try to take the traditional tropical fish photo.”
