It’s Christmas and time for friends and Christmas lights. We have two ‘old’ HS classmates living in Arizona who are coming into the Phoenix area. And, what better place to have breakfast than at the Iowa Cafe? Here we are with our coffee cups. Unfortunately, the Iowa Cafe stresses Iowa Hawkeyes rather than the Ames Cyclones which is where 3 of us went to school. The colors of the restaurant are black and gold not cardinal and gold and the cups are black and gold too. Ah, well, the food was good and the conversation was great.
In the evening, I met Mary and Sherron at the Phoenix Zoo for its Zoo Lights.
Since it was dark out, the lights, strewn throughout the zoo, were the show rather than the animals. There was a large crowd strolling the trails through the park with lots of families and music. There were lights dancing over the small lake to Mannheim Steamroller.
I liked the looming evil of the preying mantis.
I also like this maned lion.
