So, today, my family took me to the zoo, about a 1/2 hour drive from where we live. I took some pictures, so I'll show you!
There was a petting zoo...
...and they put on shows with the animals!
Well, hope you enjoyed this post!
(Hope you don't mind my creativity with the models of animals I got from the gift shop. I took no pictures of any animals at all!)

"Wait- Voluntary WHAT!?!?!" You say. But, yep, I'm starting a voluntary research project! I was walking with my family to a restaurant the other day (actually, it was more like a week and a half ago), and my mom asked if I wanted to start some sort of voluntary research project. Of course, I said yes.
The hardest part so far was coming up with a topic. I was just sitting, planning up possible topics. All of a sudden, I looked up and told my mom my list. She and I narrowed it down to 2 things: Ecuadorian Art, or the Galapagos Islands. I chose art as a fun thing to do, and the GALAPAGOS ISLANDS as my voluntary research project.
So, I hope this goes over well. It's really exciting. I just thought of posting it and letting all you readers know.
Question Just For Fun: In my new school, we have to choose an instrument to play. Guess which I picked: Drums, flute, guitar, or trumpet.

So, the school I go to has changed their schedule this year. So, that means all the vacations have switched. So, there is now a vacation starting on the 31st of January and having the last day be on February 17th.
So far, vacation has been OK. At first, my family was planning to go to the Galapagos Islands. But, the weather would have been bad, and it would have been a hassle. So, my family moved our trip to May. But, my mom and dad came up with something else. I really wanted to go to the Galapagos, and that's what adds the "ish" part to "Dreamish".
However, one of the best things my parents said we'd do was take one of those lifts up to one of the mountains. We'd be going up another 3,000 feet! One of the other things my parents said we'd do is go to some museums (e.g. art). One of the last things my parents said we'd do is go to some restaurants and go out for ice cream. That will also be very good.
So, hopefully everything will turn out all right. We still have two weeks of vacation, so lets hope it does!
