The Noble Meerkat
Jan. 17th, 2006 09:41 pmWe took a quick trip to Portland, just to get out of town. Sunday night we had dinner with
davidlevine,
kateyule, and
iggyspawn. It was at BeWon Korean Restaurant on NW 23rd, and it was pretty yummy.
The next day,
akirlu and I went to the Oregon Zoo. Since we're members of the Woodland Park Zoo, admission was free on a reciprocal basis.
The Oregon Zoo is of the "new" style, with environmental enclosures. It's also got a great many sculptures, from whimsical to quite serious.
Of the few pictures I snapped, I like this guy the best. I admire the ad aspera look to him. I also think you can hear him fulminating, "I may only be a meerkat, but I'm noble, damnit! Do you hear me?! Noble!"
