Us At The Bronx Zoo

We left the hotel this morning and headed for the train station. We arrived at the train station, bought tickets, and boarded. After transfering to a couple different trains, we arrived at our stop. When we got off the train we were right across the street fromt The New York Botanical Gardens. To get to the Bronx Zoo we had to walk the length of the gardens and the lenght of a University (which both were extremely long). Once at the zoo (which was about 11) we grabbed some Minimelts (which is icecream dots), and headed to an exhibit. After walking around for a bit we hitched a ride on the shuttle and got dropped off at The Dancing Crane Cafe where we had lunch. We visited a few more exhibits before heading out. Our feet were sore and our bodies were tired by the time reached the train station. We got on our train and headed home. Interesting Story: We went to transfer trains and both the doors opened on both sides of the train. My father and I headed out with the crowd of people, while my mother got off at the other side. She urged us to quick come over to her side to catch the next train. As the train (we just exited) moved off we saw that everyone that was on the train was standing on the other side of the tracks. Then we saw the sign "no boarding on this side of the platform/tracks" and we then realized we had to quick find a way to reach the other side of the track swithout missing our train which came in the next 5 minutes. My dad found stairs that lead to a walk way. We raced up the stairs and flew over to the other side just in time to quick board our train. It was not a very fun way to catch a train! Who We Saw On The Train: There was a man in a bikini and was wearing fish net over his bikini, he also had on 5 inch heels, thick black makeup and a bleach blond wig. GROSS!!!! I have no brain teasers for today!
