Hmm, where shall we go next?

This map is not good, Daddy.

I'll tell you where to go, Daddy.

Boy, did we have a tough week! Gi came down with a common fever on Wednesday and it didn't leave her till late Thursday. Luckily, the fever never became high enough nor stayed long enough to warrant a visit to the ped. Don't worry, mommies out there. I checked this out with the ped's nurse first. Then we noticed a slight rash around one corner of her mouth and on one of her cheeks. A few experienced mommies at the local playground suspect that the culprit of Gi's days of misery is roseola, a very common virus amongst toddlers. In fact most children will have come across this virus by age two. Anyway, now Gi is just going through the tail end of this by coughing and being a grump-a-lump (cranky-pants is another accurate description). So I knew that Munchkin needed some cheering-up. Well, who am I kidding? Hubs and I needed some cheering up too. A miserable toddler makes for miserable and sleepy parents! So today, we trekked our way to Lion Country Safari. A good time was had by all. The weather was absolutely beautiful. Gi got to see some wild animals up close, munch on her lunch by the flamingoes and even go on a few rides. Enjoy the pics!
