Let's just pretend that I'm a thoughtful person and that i actually remembered my camera this time. or we can all stop lying to ourselves and notice that im lazy. its slightly a good thing that i dont always have my camera, considering i still actually HAVE IT and it hasnt gotten stolen yet.
We went to the zoo today. by accident. Charlie asked if i wanted to go to Bellavista, and as i ate my mcdonalds (OKAY IT WAS THE ONLY THING OPEN ON EASTER SATURDAY)<---is easter saturday a holiday?....---and contemplated how we werent really supposed to go to Bellavista cause our advisor told us it is dangerous. She also told us that sandboarding is dangerous and hiking up volcanoes is dangerous. so i decided bellavista would be AWESOME. we walked all the way down providencia to bellavista which is quite a walk considering i had just walked 3 metro stops in the opposite direction. to get mcdonalds. because it was the only thing open. judge me. see if i care. i happen to love mcflurrys and i dont care who knows it.
We walked thru the cool trendy awesome bars that all sold empanadas. no but seriously there was only empanada stores. youd think that would flood the market. but youd be wrong. laws of supply and demand are backwards in the southern hemisphere. like the way the water spins. and gravity.
as we walked up a hill with a bunch of annoying people playing kazoos that sounded like monkeys, we realized we were entering the ZOO. (kaZOO. yes. its cute. i get it). it was pretty fantastic because they had a bunch of animals. as to what animals, i couldnt tell you. because there were no signs. while it might be diverse, its not the most informative place to go if you want to learn something about animals. or know what that spotted monkey bird thing is. (its not a lion by process of elimination).
considering tomorrow is easter, I thought it would be appropriate to hide all the ostrich's eggs. the zoo keeper didnt think that was funny. he must not know what an easter egg hunt is. or apparently that job is for bunnies only. WHICH THEY DONT HAVE AT THE ZOO. thought maybe i could sub in...is there a grinch of easter?
that's the only picture you get today. because you dont deserve anything cuter than this.
1. Saying bellavista is dangerous is like saying georgetown is dangerous..
ReplyDelete2. the zoo on the hill? as in cerro san cristobal? hahah that's impressive if you walked up it by accident.. it's huge!
hope you're having fun! --michelle from fulbright!
