The Rainforest Cafe

We took Charlie to The Rainforest Cafe for lunch today, thinking that naturally he would love all of the mechanical animals and the rainforest theme. To our surprise, it was a love-hate relationship; while Charlie liked the animals at first glance, he was terrified when they would start moving. "I have to go potty!" he would cry whenever one of them would get going. He spent the first half of his meal quietly shifting his eyes around to the corners of the restaurant, watching, but did eventually warm up and start beating his chest back at the gorillas and yelling in usual Charlie fashion once I had assured him for about the 50th time that they weren't real.
