is for..........ZOO


This past September, I had my very first visit to a zoo....and it was quite a zoo......

I have about 400 pictures that I took at the zoo...It was really hard to narrow it down to three or four for my blog post.

So pretty...and pink

I was happy there was a glass wall between us!!

Again....really appreciated that glass wall!! ha ha

The zoo-keeper couldn't identify the creature in the bottom right....Oh, it's Dave!!!

I loved the elephants,  They are so big, but almost graceful at the same time.

We spent an entire day the Bronx zoo, but I could've 

easily gone back for 

another day.  It was fabulous!

Now folks......this being the last day of the A-Z challenge, 

I'd like to put out a fun little challenge for my readers....

Learn the alphabet backwards!!!

When my parents went to school.....back in the 20's and 30's, 

they both had to memorize the alphabet backwards 

as well as forward--as most of us know it.

I tried it last summer, had it posted on the fridge and I 

almost had it.  Then one 

day, in a cleaning and tidying frenzy, I threw it out.

But.....it's back there now.  

There is a little bit of a rhyme to it, I've added a link.  

By the way---"Z" is pronounced "Zed"--ha ha

The letters are grouped as follows:

Z Y X

W V

U T S

R Q P

O N M

 L K J

I H G

F E D

&

C B A

Ok--signing off from the April A-Z challenge. 

I loved it and now I'm going to settle in and visit all the 
people who visited me during April.
  I am going to respond to everyone and 

work on improving my own blog.
I'm so happy I took the "A-Z" challenge!

Let me know how you do with my "Z-A" challenge!

Cheers ;o)
