We are used to frantically packing up and getting ready since our house has been for sale and we have received several short notices for showings. We threw a cute outfit on El topped her off with a bow, dressed Charlie in his usual "I don't care what I look like as long as I am comfortable wardrobe and we headed out-the-door.
We arrived at our destination to find that the closest parking spot was about 7 light years away from the door. Being my chivalrous self, I dropped the family at the door and prepared for a hike. After a 10 minute walk from Scooby Doo 2 I arrived at the check-in desk. The officer asked my name and let me know that my wife had my badge. She then just stared at me like her central computer went into sleep mode.
I said "Umm...where do I go to find my wife that has my badge?"
She replied "In there." Pointing to a secured door that can not be entered without a badge. I thought to myself, "You are BRILLIANT!" I text Jamie to come get me and she must have been reading my mind because she simultaneously met me at the door. The rush to leave the house, the 8 mile hike and the enlightening encounter with Deputy Dog was all worth it.
Warning:The following pictures contain all kinds of cuteness.
Ella immediately tried to capture the penguin to take him home.
Charlie brought his dinosaur along and was a bit shy at first.
Ella could not get enough of this cute and wild creature.
Charlie finally warmed up a bit and gave the penguin a pet or two.
Don't worry. This penguin is a species from South Africa and is used to warm climates. No ice required for this girl named Simon.
This was just the first stop of our day. To be continued...
To see Simon, visit the Newport Aquarium in Newport, KY.
