What Happened to Manners?

On Wednesday my family went to the Fort Worth Zoo. It was my hubby, my mother in law, my brother in law, and myself. We had a good time for the most part. It was crowded because it was half price day. We had no clue they did this half price or we would have waited to go Thursday or today.



We like half price, but with my brother in law Mike it is easier to go when it is less crowded. You see Mike has Cerebral Palsy. He is in  a wheel chair. It is difficult to get him around in a big crowd. People not paying attention to where they are going. I do not know how many people he ended up running over.  The white bangle tiger exhibit was really crowed because the tiger was pacing up and down the glass. We waited our turn to get up to the glass and Steve (my hubby) is trying to get Mike up to the glass. Well this adult comes charging up to the front where Mike is and stands his self exactly in front of Mike. You know I guess I am more understanding when kids do this because obviously there parents are not teaching them any manners, but it really bugs me when a grown person does this crap. Can he not see that a wheelchair is behind him and the person in the wheelchair can not see through or over him?The guy was so close that Steve ended up hitting the guys legs as he was backing Mike up.

It really was a great day. It was not too hot and not too cold. We managed to have a fun despite some peoples rudeness.
