i went to the zoo & fell in love...bad.

so many years have passed since the last time i went to the zoo.

when my lovely sister was here, we went to the wilhelma
here in stuttgart.
& i forgot how much i absolutely love the zoo & everything it is about.
all the beautiful animals & their lovely spaces, the beautiful gardens & colors.
i especially love spending the whole entire day with someone i hold dear to my heart.

it sure is a spectacular thing.

i fell in love {all over again}with cute cuddly teddy bears, sunbathing kangaroos, curious baby monkeys, silly hungry penguins, adorable-melt your heart-baby gorillas, unusual looking animals, graceful elephants, majestic birds, baby duckies-trying to keep up with their mommies, butterflies galore, snoring lions, powerful gorillas-who can see right into your soul, the amazing patterns of zebras, all the different types of insects & reptiles that you secretly love but are beyond happy to see all safe in their cages{or you safe out of their cages} , watching your favorite animals forever, all the amazing flowers, & long train rides home with these guys...

one thing about european men we will never understand is the phenomenon of the manpri but...

we go crazy for them...crazy!
{note how close aim is to them. yay...they knew & they thought we thought that they were hott. we didn't but had fun fanning their silly man egos.}


P.S. we really don't go crazy for them. if you are reading this & you in fact wear manpris or someone you know wears them, please don't be offended and just know that you should stop or you should get them to stop the madness. it's just not right. say no to manpris especially floral ones...

{mallorca manpri spotted...they're everywhere}

hope your weekend was full of relaxation goodness!
