Wild kingdom

By
Last weekend, Jack went to his friend Grayson's fourth birthday party. The entertainment was a reptile guy which was pretty cool. Jack impressed me by touching each of the creatures that the handler brought with him.

First a milk snake (not a coral snake)

Then a big, old tortoise

And an Australian skink that can make itself look like an Adder, one of the most deadly snakes on the planet (honestly, I don't want to run in either one)

Lastly a boa constrictor.

ok, maybe he wasn't that into the show. :)

All in all, decent seats - but the sun made them a bit unbearable. The game started off slow - I mean slow. The first two innings took almost 2 hours. We were roasting in the sun! Eventually, we decided to walk around to check out the rest of the stadium and get out of the sun. The game got much better after we starting moving. Eventually, we ended up on the first level watching the game from the walkway. The pregnancy bump paid off, because one of the ushers in this area let us sit down in the shade
