Where Globe-Trotting meets Beach-Combing
Dad is our favorite. The zoo is our favorite. So we put them together! Chris got home a day earlier than expected, and after most of the morning at home Monday we popped over to the zoo just for something fun to do. It was hot, but the water was cool. Eloise rode the brass…
