Me and the Elephant, we still remember you
We finally got round to going to San Francisco Zoo on our day off on Memorial Day on Monday. I took a load of pictures which I have just uploaded to Flickr. I'm really blown away by Flickr, it is so easy to use. Really good user interface design, like really good anything, looks deceptively simple - but it's not. I took loads of pictures at the zoo, some came out pretty good. I love having the 10 megapixel camera as you can take a pic of an animal that is really rather far away, then crop and enlarge the image and you still have a decent picture. I added a link to my flickr pages to my links section in this blog.
I tried to get some video of giraffe's peeing. That's all the giraffes seemed to do when we were looking at them. Its amazing how much water comes out of a giraffe, it has such a long way to travel too.
I really liked the little train at the zoo, but then I always do!
This squirrel was very funny. It kept hopping up on the little train's engine as we were waiting for it to leave. I was worried it was going to get run over, but it must be used to dicing with death on the little train.
