Zoo fun (and a bit of technology)

I went to the zoo today with my brother and sister-in-law and nieces and nephew. (four children in all). It was fun, and I couldn't help comparing it to trips I made to the zoo in previous years. I used to teach at a daycare, and taking four children to the zoo is much easier than taking forty. Plus with the daycare trips, I was taking a 35 mm camera with one or two rolls of film. 48 pictures maximum... And I never knew if the pictures turned out all right until I developed the film. On a daycare wage, sometimes that took a while. I took my digital camera to the zoo today, and took 250 pictures, all of which I'm able to view tonight. Some of which I glanced at right away to see if they turned out okay, so I could retake them if not. Ain't technology grand? (And escaping the daycare for the library is pretty cool too.)

I took 347 pictures and 10 video clips! :) What did we do without digital cameras?
