Friday there was a Monsters' mug in, which went really well, of course I got wet. Zoo and Monsters both had a party friday, the Zoo party was awesome, a lot people came out and danced, Monsters ended up closing down a little early. Saturday we had the Soupe, Brad and I were both invited. It was a really nice set up, and the food was good too, well the soup was a little gross, other than that it was good food. The dessert was awesome, a strawberry peach parfait of some sort. Afterwards everyone went up to the Arctic Club and Kim gave out some free prizes, i won razor blades and a tooth brush. Sunday morning we had another bear track sighting, so i gave Lisa a ride to do her weather balloon, which was pretty interesting. Birdman also arrived Friday morning, and was happy to see that Brad had a picture of one of his birds already, as soon as he saw the bird he knew exactly which one it was, it was amazing. Thats it for this week, the fish are great and they got some new fake plants in the tank which are keeping them happy. - Julie
