Biblically Correct Tours

I hate the zoo ... but I love the aquarium
As I told you before, I hate the zoo. Luckily, my daughter Alex isn't that fond of the zoo either, so I don't feel a whole lot of pressure to visit it very often. Funnily enough, however, I love aquariums. For some reason, captive ...
