The girls' top priorities at the zoo included: (1) Ride the carousel (2) Ride the train (3) Ride the carousel. Josie rode a variety of animals, but Rozzie would only ride the tiger. "I wide tiger! Fwee times!" says Roz.

Once back home Roz invited some of her besties over: Neighbor Gina, Carla, and Wedgie. She feasted on takeout Thai and chocolate cupcakes.
