This Aida is lovely. Good morning for the 12 minutes left of it here....:)
It is quite cool in SoCal; I’ll be wearing layers when I go out shortly. Overcast, good day for photography...
That is super, Drumbo. Handsome little boy ... seems like the birth announcement was not that long ago...:)

For all family members, there will be live entertainment from Sesame Street, Miley Cyrus who stars in the hit series Hannah Montana, and several other stage performances. Families can also enjoy animal introductions from Peter Gros from Mutual of Omaha’s Wild Kingdom.

The majority of tickets will be available beginning at 7:30 a.m. on Saturday, April 7, and a small allotment of tickets will be available beginning at 7:30 a.m. on Monday, April 9. The tickets, which are timed for entrance, will be distributed on a first-come basis at the Ellipse Visitor Pavilion (southwest corner of 15th and E Streets). A maximum of five tickets will be issued per person. Children of all ages are welcome to attend, as long as there is at least one child seven years old or under and no more than two adults per group.
