We were at como once and asked N what she thought the Girafs ate, she commented that they at blueberries, we puzzled over that one for a minute. OH yeah, their tongues are dark and so are blueberries. (GRIN)

So, how about that smell hmm? Took me about 3 days to get it off of my hands (they have a VERY strong musk). Not sure if 5 is old enough to really be putting it out there or not.

Those are the shortest giraffes I've ever seen.

Did you climb steps or is the giraffe standing in a trench?

Giraffes do some of their best acting in trenches, you know. I saw a giraffe play Miss St John the Baptist in a trench, and Miss Napoleon Bonaparte in a trench, and Miss Alexander Fleming in a furrow, Miss Galileo in a groove and Mrs Jesus Christ in a geological syncline.

I just noticed...

If you crop the left side of the second photo a bit, it would look like a guy in a green shirt with a giraffe's head.

OMG, I love giraffes!! They have the most beautiful eyes in the world. *is green with envy*

Funny thing? My son seems to have inherited that love because in every picture book he first looks up lions (with an accompanied roar) and then the giraffe. He's not very clear spoken so it took me a while first to realise what he was trying to say. ("Íaffi! Íaffi!"=gíraffi)
