I know sometimes zoos can be less-than-uplifting places to visit. But through the eyes of three boys, running madly from zebra to elephant to snake to cotton candy – it can be the happiest day on earth.

The whimsy, the colors, the carousel, the patterns on the back of a komodo dragon. Aztec exhibits in winding tunnels… running to see wild dogs, then climb life sized spider webs. Laughter, tigers, roaring – all one big blur.

Life was good, like bubble gum.
