Inside the St Louis Zoo with Tad, Polly & Unruly Kids

Have you ever been in public and wished you could discipline someone else's kids? While at the St Louis Zoo Tad and I ran into not one, but three.

A number of exhibits at the zoo were very crowded but kids and parents got a close up look, a picture or two and moved on to allow others to get their shot. But at the polar bear exhibit, three kids stood in front of the animal, waving their hands in it's face and following it's swim with the zoo map so no one else could see much less take a picture.

Everyone was patient, letting the 3 kids have their turn to have fun with the polar bear but patience started to wear thin when they WOULD NOT move. The family did not speak English so they were oblivious to the frustration parents were feeling as grumbles could be heard throughout the crowd.

I did manage to get one picture after holding my camera as high as I could but those hands were still there. After 15 minutes I finally gave up and moved on.

A piece of advice; don't be selfish. Take your turn and MOVE ON!
