Tea-Rex says it's PARTY TIME!

Roar! Today was such a nice day out I invited all my friends over for tea. It was such a great party!

Here we are up on the roof of my apartment building. We're having Four Red Fruits tea with strawberry wafers for a Five Fruit Combo! The wafers were a big hit with and everyone ate their fill. Roar!

Look how cute Giraffe is with her tiny tea cup. I love it when she can come up to visit!

This is my colleague Hippo. He and I have worked together on a couple of films. He also loves Wafers! Roar!

Mr. Tusks brought his friend Ronnie the Rhinoceros. Ronnie is a really cool guy, he told us about his time in both Africa AND Asia. He's been all over the world! Now he lives with Mr. Tusks down at Gerritsen Beach. 

Bao Bao also came over for tea. He enjoyed the For Red Fruits but claimed it was still inferior to a good long-jing tea. Oh, Bao Bao!

Care for more tea, anyone?

Ugg... I think Hippo had too many wafers! And Mr. Tusks drank a little more tea than he could handle.

Giraffe and I were both feeling pretty wiped out after all the tea and wafers. Those five fruits sure pack a wallop! Roar!

The only ones who were able to handle their tea were Bao Bao and Ronnie the Rhinoceros. Despite this embarrassing end to the tea party everyone had a great time. Roar!

Double 9's!

Roar! Yesterday was double 9's, the 9th day of the 9th month on the Chinese calender and the most auspicious day of the year. On double 9's there is way too much Yin energy in the air so all the guys have to go out and drink smelly flower tea then climb to a high point and scream, spreading their chi out all over the land. I decided to ride to the top of the glacial moraine and hang out in Forest Park in Queens.

On my way over to Forest Park I rode past Forest Hills golf course. I had no idea there was a full golf course in NYC. Woah! Did that guy just get a hole in one?!

Here I am on top of the glacial moraine. It sure is pretty out! I love fall! Roar! I'm having some trail mix and drinking chrysanthemum tea. Yum. Then I went and ROARED real loud so all of New York could hear me! Did you?

Here is a really pretty pond over by Forest Park. I would like to come back here and paint this someday.

OH MY GOODNESS! Check out these sweet pine trees! I never knew we had trees like this in NYC. This is so amazing! All the pine needles were crunching under my feet as I stomped around! And the smell, oh my it was incredible. I love trees! Roar!
