Today was Kuya's birthday! To celebrate we all got up early, opened up Kuya's seven birthday gifts, (he turned seven today), then headed off to the Atlanta zoo.

 |
| Even Grump was in a good mood |
 |
| Grump and Dodong were the first in the car |
 |
| Uh-oh! Back to normal behavior |
After driving for what seemed like forever, (stupid Atlanta traffic!), we finally arrived!
 |
| Dodong, Sweetie, and Kuya at the zoo. (Lola was looking the other way!) |
Once at the zoo, we saw all sorts of weird, unusual animals!
 |
| Flamingos |
 |
| Kuya feeding the parakeets |
 |
| Meerkats! |
 |
| Lions! |
 |
| Kangaroos! |
All this walking around got tiring!

Kuya decided he was a photographer, and snapped several pics. We call this series a "study of fencing and retaining walls".

After the zoo we drove up to Doraville to the
Buford Highway Farmers Market. If you live anywhere near Atlanta, it is well worth a visit.
 |
| Bananas! |
 |
| Peppers! |
Our last stop of the day was at the wonderful
Grits Cafe in Forsyth, where we all enjoyed a fantastic meal that we probably can't afford. (Why is life so darn expensive?)

| Birthday Boy |
 |
| Even Lola was pleased! |
 |
| Dodong is always pleased! |
Peace!
