    Here's your info for the flamingos: Flamingos turn pink from eating shrimp and many other dietary sources such as blue-green algae and mollusk. This happens because shrimp contains the pigment called beta carotene which is responsible for the change in coloration.

    I remember taking my kids from Ohio to Niagara Falls in Canada (by myself) when they were about 8 and 11 years old. I could hardly believe it myself when I managed to get that trip accomplished by myself. It was a turning point in my development as a woman who could "do things." ☺

    Wow, I am 79 and I have not been to the zoo in ages. I had so much fun wih you and your kids today, I felt like I just tagged aong like another kid. Seeing the nursing mothers was a sweet surprise. Life, goes on , every spring new life comes forth. babies, tiny plants , each specie and creature bringing forth its own kind. I wished I could have some tachos and snuggle in for a movie with all of you. It brought back good memories of raising my 3 lititle ones, and being a single Mom, while my husband was away for long months at a time as a commercial fisherman. The dinner hour and early evenings were the most challenging and blessed. We would go out to eat at the Royal Fork cafeteria,, and drive around for a while, go down to the shoreline and watch the ferries, and the sunset, then home and watch tv and snuggle on the couch. In those days, kids could eat dinner at the RF for 10 cents per year of age and the food was fresh and good. Little Wilder is so astute for 4 yrs old!! his remark about the Lion planning his next meal !! took my breath away. And Royal, oh my goodness, figuring out how to help Mommy…!! Your children are so intelligent and loving, You are such a good Mother. ❤

    I remember these days. Was a single mom for 14 years. I only had 2 boys of my own....but we usually had a friend, or two, or three in tow. That could really add up (when they are always hungry!!!). So a couple of 2-liter of drink, some lunch meat, loaf of bread, and a day trip was so affordable. Then it turned into camping trips instead of Disney trips.....but we have great memories.

    Bri, you're such an AMAZING Mom! I enjoyed your field trip. As a single Mom, I did exactly as you by bringing our food and snacks when going anywhere. We simply couldn't afford to do otherwise. My grown children especially remember taking them to the small wooded area next to our neighboring cities swimming pool and I would cook chicken on the barbecues that were furnished while they would swim. They loved it.

    That looked delicious! So nice to see you do so much nice stuff with your kids.
    When you sliced the potato I come to think of a dinner my father use to make it has a Swedish name, kjöttlåda, means meat drawer. You slice potato and meat in thin slices and lay them in layers in a big pan. Seasoning between every layer with salt and pepper. The layer ends with a layer of potatoes. Take some flour in a glass with lid and water, shake well until it's no lumps in the water. Pore it over the Kjöttlåda and put it in the oven on 180 celcius for about an hour or so, it depends on your oven. I loved when the potato on top are crispy. Sadly I can't eat this dinner anymore since I'm allergic to potatoes. But I guess I can use sweet potato?

    What a great, fun day. And the crispy cheesy potatoes looked yummy 😋
    I love ‘free’ places to take the kids that they enjoy & then when they ask to go again, I can say Yes!
    P.S. your doing great, hugs to you xx
