This post is a little late, but I went to the zoo on Friday. I swear this guy was just asking for me to take pictures. I mean, look at the flipper on hip action.
I think the zoo is an amazing place to remember that we're part of a much larger world. Seeing all the animals, reading the signs about them, and learning always reminds me that there is so much out there yet to be learned and seen. I just looked it up and it turns out humans cover about 10% of the Earth's surface (which makes sense when you realize how much of the Earth is covered by water...). Now take an individual human...an individual human is not likely to go visit every area that has been inhabited by other humans (even if they are travel freaks). It's just not realistically possible to travel to every country, city, town, and village. Which means that there is a lot out there that we haven't seen yet.
And that makes me want to go explore.
