Today on my humor blog we explored What's Going On In Rex Morgan, M.D.? Is Rene Belluso gone now? No, of course he's not. But you know who's here yet? Kenny Kangaroo, whom you will not see in this quick set of pictures from KennyKon last July:
More pictures from the moments outside; here's the top of the ship, rocking, with animals poking their heads out.
Look up and you can see the giraffe, and also Noah looking quite cross for some reason or other.
Back inside, and into the darkness! And through a pane of glass (or, probably, plastic) you can see some of Noah's stock of supplies, including bunnies.
Better light setting and better light overall, plus no glass, and you can see the lions brought in.
Monkey and something or other in another glass-free enclosure so you can see whatever it is exactly.
Bees! Also probably wasps, in case we need wasps in the post-diluvian world for some reason.
And now we're getting into the birds and the psychedelic-colored trees, like we needed.
Done with the good outdoor pictures. Here's a quick stop in Kiddieland for their junior merry-go-round, Kenny's Karousel. It's a Mangels-made ride that arrived at the park in 1924, one of the original Kiddieland rides and older than the main, 1927, Dentzel merry-go-round.
Waiting now for a turn on the Auto Ride. Note that Route 66 is nowhere near Pittsburgh, although when the ride opened in 1930 Route 66 did exist and was almost four years old.
Not sure why the ride operator is talking to the crowds here but I'm sure there was a good reason. I think there had been a delay on the ride for something or other and people needed to be reassured that there's no telling when the ride will be back up.
Noticed that someone had left their ride photo behind. It comes in a little protective flyer. We left it where we found it, but I did get a snap of the informational text that you get on the inside cover of the flyer.
From the end of the lagoon here's a view up at Racer, the midway games, and Jack[-]Rabbit.
