I'm not sure if Shabd or Papa was more excited over Shabd's birthday present, both being music lovers. Both their eyes danced as their hands lightly fingered the keys of the keyboard Shabd received as his birthday present.
The day was off to a TIGGERIFFIC start, whoo hoo hoo hoo!
La Vanille Crocodile Park was the venue for Shabd's 2nd birthday celebrations. His best friend in the whole wide world came along to celebrate with him. The two of them went tearing down the pathways, screaming at the tops of their voices, "Nayshaaaaaaad! Shaaaaaaabd! Waow!"
We marveled at the crocodiles...some more than others!
We were entertained by the monkeys, the furry brown ones that is!
We learnt about fossils and ammonites and dinosaur bones! Thank you chacha Ravi.
We visited the Insectarium and saw weird and wonderful creepy crawlies.
We saw hundreds of colourful butterflies of all sizes and shapes. And imagined they were alive and we were in a field of flowers surrounded by them.
We saw American alligators. And Malagasy crocodiles.
We learnt that turtles and crocodiles can be friends too. And Koi come in a kaleidoscope of colours.
We met Seychellois GIANT tortoises. Shabd was terribly polite, leaned over and said "Good morning Fabrice. How are you?" Well it's only logical that a Seychellois tortoise would have a French name. And being his mothers son, Shabd tried to move Fabrice along!
The restaurant created our own little celebration corner and the boys loved it! They especially enjoyed eating the stars on the cake!
And if all this was not enough, we met donkeys and goats and sheep on our way out! Everyone, sing with me, "Baa baa black sheep have you any wool? Yes sir, yes sir, three bags full. One for my master and one for my dame and one for little Shabd who lives on Palma Lane!"
"Thank you for coming to my appity to you" says Shabd!
Lovely! Mission accomplished! Shabd clearly had a fantastic birthday! Lovely pictures! :-)
