May 21 - Woodland Zoo

Calvin wanted to take motorcycle classes to get his license, and the rest of us got to go along too! We stayed at the University Inn near the U of Wa, where the boys took until 11pm to fall asleep. The next day while Calvin toiled, we took the shuttle to the zoo and spent the day there. John loved everthing. Thomas loved the rabbits and running off to find a private spot to (!). My favorites were the bears and the penguins, which is a brand-new exhibit using geo-thermal systems for all the water. When we couldn't walk anymore we met up with Calvin at the hotel where the boys swam in a freezing pool. After that we walked the University District, finally settling on a Greek joint where John chose...pizza! Thomas didn't choose anything...he was sound asleep on a table.
