Bunny Emergency.


Please visit the Tranquility Trail Animal Sanctuary website and help them with a donation if you can!!!
http://www.tranquilitytrail.org/Emergency_Bunny_Rescue.html

From their website:
TTAS was contacted about a backyard situation out of control in Phoenix. We have spent the last two days catching, sexing and separating the bunnies. We are up to 100 bunnies with many still in burrows and numerous pregnant females. Our detailed plan to get the situation under control and what supplies/volunteers will follow. We have set-up an Emergency Rescue Fund that will be used exclusively for this rescue operation. Funds will be used for medical treatment and spay/neuters. We estimate the cost for this portion of the operation to be $5000-$7000. If you would like to make a donation, please visit http://www.tranquilitytrail.org/Donation_Center.html and note Emergency Rescue Fund.
We've also compiled a list of things that we need to make this rescue a success.  Items can be dropped off at the sanctuary at any time during business hours.  Feel free to call us if you come across anything that may be useful to our rescue mission.

Phoenix finally wins.

The World's First Global Musical Instrument Museum.



We were there for 2 hours, and only got through parts of Africa, the Middle East, Asia and Latin America. My back started hurting from being on my feet for so long because it's HUGE.



They have audio headsets that sync up to the displays as you get near them. All you have to do is adjust the volume if you need to. I now know that I enjoy the music of Madagascar.



I met some people at work who said the spent the whole day there. Started at one area, went down and had lunch in the cafe midday, then headed back up for the rest of the world.

Gotta look into a membership because it's awesome and they're not even done with it yet!!
