“Yummy, yummy yummy, I got love in my tummy!”- so goes the 1968 song of Ohio Express, a brilliant choice for any given event. Truly good-time happy music from the very best bubblegum rock band. I applaud Ohio Express, and would like to pay tribute to their ageless tunes by posting some pictures I took during my very short stay in Ohio. The pictures that are about to tickle your visual appetite were taken in the summer of 2005.

We love felines, but they were sleeping and unwilling to parade for us at The Tiger Terrace. That makes one wonder who is the real boss out there. A sleeping tiger, I have never seen any more beautiful a spectacle in my life. I truly respect animals; felines and reptiles in particular. There is an air of majesty to Big Cats, they dominate the scene and they don’t even sweat it. This picture, and other pictures of animals, were taken at The Toledo Zoo.
Here’s to Africa.

The Reptile House held some of the most fascinating creatures. Take a look for yourself. I just wish there was a way to touch or play with the Princes of the Wild. There wasn’t any, one would have to content one’s self just looking from behind the glass barrier. That was heartbreaking.

And then, of course, were the penguins. A superb, if undocumented in pictures, visit was paid to The Aquarium and The Arctic Encounter.
