YAYAYAYA my boyfriend is coming down from central california to take me to the San Diego zoo for my birthday :)
Galapagos, Galapagos, Galapagos...Woo! :tort:
Just so everyone know, he laughed at me because the first thing I said after he told me he was surprising me and coming down was "Oh my gosh! They have a huge herd of Galapagos tortoises there!'
Okay, I just had to say that because I'm super stoked!

awesome!!!!!! Make sure you ask to speak to Jenna R in the reptile husbandry area. She works specifically with all the tortoises and maybe, she can give you a personal tour of the facility. Call ahead and see if she is working... :)

Good for you! They also have leopards, sulcatas and Burmese torts there. And check out the giant aquatic turtles way down at the end in with the Gharials. Those are even more fascinating than the torts to me.

And just exactly why is your birthday "hidden" on the calendar? Don't you want the Birthday Fairy to send you wishes on your day?

And where in Central Calif. is your boyfriend?

I know you're busy Skyler, but I'm sure I'm not the ONLY one who wants to know how the day was...;)
