We decided on the Tucson Zoo today for our escape from all of the craziness of home. CP was happy to be out and about. It started out a little ugly since there was some sort of car show going on in that end of the park and the zoo had some special event going on. Parking was a bit crazy, but we did manage to get lucky and someone was leaving just as we snaked our way up toward the front in the conga line. CP was off and running as soon as we entered the gate and knew where she was going - straight to the water play area.
She had a blast, but started taking her clothes off. The toddler nekkidness was stopped and the screaming began, so we took her into the grassy area and took her shirt off to dry. We had some fun playing because it was full of kids, but soon she wanted to take the rest of her clothes off. Funny thing is, she started doing it while she was inside the plastic tortoise shell that they have. Once we saw the other moms and kids around the shell with the "what the ...?" look on their faces, we knew something was up. Sure enough, she came half tumbling out of the shell with her pants down at her knees.
After that it was downhill, so we headed off to lunch at jesuschicken where she could have a bit of bird and play in the playroom.

I honestly don't see what the big deal is. Okay, nekid in public is illegal, but she's two!! Those adults need to understand that some kiddies aren't taught to feel bad about their bodies.
I think that it was the nekkid squatting inside the tortoise shell that threw the others a little.
Prudes! I just heard an NPR story a day or two ago that the Swiss are tired of German hikers stripping down to their boots on their trails and plan to outlaw the practice. LOL
Ok, I'll bite. Why do you call the place "jesuschicken"?

Ah, that makes sense. I read the other article you linked to and didn't get that from it.
By the way, you can go read my verdict on moving to the Midwest, just posted today. Hint: it's a no-go.
Saw that. I tried to prepare you in the comments section, but it's just one of those crazy things that you have to see for yourself. Bummed to hear about the bumper bites.
