"I'm curious to see where you would have rather seen the money spent in the zoo." In 1,2, and 3 all we have been doing is working hard to get rid of useless ballast and generate revenue. Here we get to have fun as well as scuttle useless ballast and generate revenue. You are going to get in touch with Tweedle Dum and Tweedle Dee and see what you can get for the mushrooms above. They would look great in Wonderland. Play your cards right, and they may put you in touch with the Mad Hatter and he would probably give you a good price on the the trench coats and umbrella below. Give him the bee keepers hood and jacket and hives in the next room, if it will help seal the deal. You have bee's well represented in the kiddie park on Stings, Wings and Playthings. Once this building is empty, we have a use for the siding, so we aren't going to tear it down yet. It's there, so we might as well leave it standing for now. Don't worry about the children not knowing where the animals fit in to their world. Until they understand what a fish footman and a frog footman do, and how the Duchess turns a baby into a pig, we don't need to go any further with their "interpreting".
