Oceanside Trip Blog (Series, Day 4)

Today we went to the San Diego Zoo. Sometimes it can be depressing to see all of the animals in a cage, just stuck there. I put myself in their shoes. I’m kind of living in a cage myself, just living in my room. Locked up. Living like I am in a zoo.
​
I did enjoy walking around alone with my daughter a lot. It was nice to look at the animals through her eyes and see her excitement. It was good to know that she was happy. Like I said, it doesn’t matter how I feel. I just want them to have a good time. 

I noticed all of the monkeys playing together except one that was by himself. I wondered, “Why?” Why did they single him out? Was he not cool? Maybe he was the only cool one and that is why he sat alone!

Maybe we can go back when the kids are older. Maybe not. I know when I was older, I didn’t want to go to the zoo, but maybe they will.
