The Zoo, Books, and Stuff

-I explored the Oregon Zoo, while Jenny worked. Some of the pics I took (too many overall, of course).

-The life cycle of a fish, in mosaic.


-Wonderful atmosphere, with the great firs.
-Awww...turtles.

-I watched these guys for probably a half hour.

-Polar Bear!

-Maybe he just was bored.


-Playful penguins.

-This little mongoose looked anxious and seemed to look right at me. I was taken.

-Zebra.

-Batty, batty, bat...the cave was great! I like them even more now.


-Lorikeet.











-Elephant's Delicatessen! Lovely food.


-In front of Powell's. I'm not going to lie, I was quite overwhelmed.













-Jenny amongst the stacks.


-Well, you could find it here!


-The city of roses...even on utility things.


-Chinatown Gate in Portland.
