Spring is a good time to be a hippo in the city – there's always something fun to do. Recently, I went to a big wine tasting party with my friends at the zoo. The bouncer didn't even check my I.D. because I am, of course, a V.I.P. (Very Important 'Po).

Most of the people were sticking their noses in their glasses, taking a sip, and then scribbling things on paper. My nose wouldn't quite fit, so I just admired the color and doodled monkeys on my menu.

Salut!
