See the Feedgulls

Sunday after the Zoo, we grabbed some bread about to turn into Penicillin and headed to Coyote Point Park to feed whatever we found. Expected to see some ducks or geese, but found instead only Seagulls.

Miles loved the experience. It was fun to watch Miles toss the bread out to the birds, then the birds just stare at the bread which barely clears 1 foot from us. You can see them going through the risk/reward analysis in their heads. "How important is this bread?" "Why would they only throw it 9 inches in front of them?" "Is this a trap?" Their questions were answered when Miles would then shout - "Birds bread! There!"











And then it was off to the swings and slides.

MerWheeeeee! Go Round

While we catch-up on our back log of life experiences, we will have a few posts which are out of sequence and out of date. Posts will date back as far as...(gulp)...Jan.

Amelia got to go on her first Merry-Go-Round ride at the Oakland Zoo. Tucked between her big brother and her father, she was sandwiched by the strongest men in her life; still she was a little unsure of what she was in for.

It was a cold morning, so we apologize for the hats :(

Miles and Daddy went on the train together to see the Kangaroos and Emus.

Think Miles was excited?

Then it was off to the Zoo's playground. Lina bought Miles a pair of sunglasses at the Zoos because it was such a crisp, bright day. For a while, he looked even more like Daddy.

And then it happened. In one of those genuine moments, Miles met Mia where she sat and gave her a tender hug. We are so delighted to have caught this moment. Its one of our favorites because it was spontaneous and all his idea.
