The plan is to draw one 'date idea' each week and to accomplish it the upcoming weekend. We found out quickly that at times other things come up and we can't accomplish our 'date', however, we diligently place our 'date idea' on the fridge so that it's a constant reminder until we go!
The night that we made our basket full of fun ideas, Sean drew the first little, yellow, folded piece of surprise excitement from the basket. The 'date' that he drew was one of his own ideas, and was for us to go to one of our favorite restaurants, The Tucson Oven. The blog entry I wrote before this one was that date. :) I had meant to mention how our new fun idea came about in the post I made about the Tucson Oven, but I browsed through that post just a moment ago and saw that I hadn't.
It's my goal to blog about each of our dates we go on!
The day we went to the Tucson Oven, I drew our next 'date' from the basket. It was one of my ideas, and it was for us to go to the Gulf Breeze Zoo. Sean has lived in the Pensacola area for more than 20 years, but he's never been to the small local zoo that's here! It's only a few miles down the highway from our house
Due to weather and then family plans, it took a couple weeks for us to be able to go, but last weekend on Saturday, 6/30/12, off we went!
We took a ton of pictures, many of which I'll post later from home, and had a wonderful time. The only downer to the day was the heat. The almost unbearable heat! It was about 95 degrees and extremely humid. The pictures of us aren't my favorite because I'm definitely not looking my best! .. What can I say, it was hot and muggy, and I was sweaty!
A had a couple of favorite parts to the couple hours we were there. First, I got to feed and pet a giraffe and a camel! .. WOO!.. I got to feed many other animals too, but the giraffe was definitely one of the highlights. He/She was beautiful. The camel I must say... stunk. I'm sure I did too, so we tried not to offend each other.
