For this lovely titled blog post, I tell about the time we had at the Baltimore Zoo and Smithsonian National Zoological Park. We went to The Baltimore Zoo to go to Samson the baby elephant's 2nd Birthday Bash. Charm City Cakes, of Ace of Cakes fame, made a cake to celebrate, as well as sheet cakes for the visitors. The zoo had made cakes for the elephants. The elephant's cakes were made of mashed potatoes, cornbread, and various fruits and vegetables. The human cakes were made with chocolate cake, frosting, and either peanut butter or raspberry filling.
The above picture of an ordinary looking white van is actually CCC's delivery van.
This is me with 3 of the crew. We had actually missed Duff, the Ace of Cakes himself, by a minute or two, but these 3 stayed for the show they filmed here. As we were at the front of the line, Dad had to sign photo release forms for me and Missy.

After the cake, we went to Taco Bell, and then to the overly crowded National Zoo. (For official name, look up in intro paragraph) We saw the pandas, the small mammals, the monkeys, and the tigers. this was a great shot I got of the tiger coming toward me.
