To make up for the fact that I forgot to take photos of those around me, I have an amazing story that shows the contagious nature of laughter. While we made our way up the platform, surrounded by greenery that made it look like we were in a rain forest, we came to the lion exhibit. My roommates and I as well as some other zoogoers stood in front of the majestic lion who was sprawled out on the ground. He sat up suddenly and everyone in the crowd anxiously awaited to see what happened. This giant lion began to try to throw up a hair ball, looking like a domestic kitten. I instantly start cracking up. When others around me heard me laughing and realized what was going on, they joined in too. Before you knew it, this giant crowd was laughing so hard about this giant scary cat trying to throw up a hair ball. It was honestly one of the funniest experiences!
P.S. To brighten up your day here is a picture of two elephants who are totally in love.
Hey Kate! Trust me when I say I would have made the same mistake if it wasn’t for Mary informing me. Sounds like it all worked out for you though. It looked like you and your roommates had a blast together still and I loved the picture of the elephant.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely the cutest campus on this side of Tarrant County. My roommate came to the zoo with me too, kind of lke "roomie-bonding." What are the odds that you'd see the King of the Jungle hacking up a hairball right as you were walking past?!
