We met my good friend from college Brian and his family at the N.C. Zoo today, a trip we've been trying to get together since 2006. Brian and I met during freshman orientation at UNC, and this is the first time all of our kids have met. It was a very fun day, and thankfully the zoo has lots of trees that shaded us from the 90-degree heat.The kids received stickers upon arrival that said "I belong in the zoo." Very appropriate.
The African animals were a huge hit, as was the zoo playground. We ate a picnic lunch on the grounds, where we were instantly surrounded by Canadian geese hoping to share our meal. Chris' dad will be pleased to know we let Josh and Eric, Brian's son, chase the geese around the park while we ate.

We ended the day with ice cream and a ride on the carousel.
