ITS OFFICIAL

Philip, Nikole, Meganne and I took our last Sierra Middle School field trip on Wednesday. We went with Meganne's M.E.S.A group--the whole club, not just her windmill team. There were about 33 kids that went and the 3 advisors. We went to the Albuquerque zoo, the M.E.S.A group then went to the aquarium and Nikole, Philip and I went to the Botanical Gardens. The zoo was really fun because the weather was cool enough that the animals were active. Polar bears playing with big blue balls, elephants rolling tires...actually, I have got to tell you about the polar bears. One of them was playing with the ball the majority of the time. He would be on a rock and put the ball in the water then attempt to belly plop onto the ball. It would go shooting up and the bear would go down into the water. Funny funny. Then he decided he needed to get the ball to the top of the exhibit so he rolled it up the little ramp, waterfall thing they have. When he got it to the top he was joined by the other bear. Then he worked the ball up the wall and pushed it off to the outside of the exhibit. He stood there looking over the wall and then the other one went and looked over the wall as well as if to say "huh, guess I shouldn't have done that" to which the other one replies "ya think"!! It was hilarious!!!
Anyway, here are some pictures taken by our future zoologist/wildlife photograper (Nikole). After we were done there, we went to this HUGE pizza/arcade place called IT'Z. It was an awesome place. Anyway, it was a good ending of an era...onto high school :)
