8:32
on his shoes did you know giraffe wear
8:34
shoes well this giraffe does and then he
8:37
went out to his car and he got in the
8:41
car and then he realized he can't lift
8:46
his head up and so he said oh this car
8:50

8:53
and he went down like this can you show
8:55

8:57
yeah show me your sad giraffe oh but
9:01
then the giraffe had an idea and the
9:05
giraffe got happy in the giraffe and
9:07
stretched his neck up high and the
9:13
giraffe said I think I can go in a train
9:18
so the giraffe walked down to the train
9:21
station and said to the person who was
9:24
selling tickets can I buy a ticket and I
9:28

9:30
just want to get out of the house and go

9:45
sad giraffe the giraffe got very sad all
9:49
the way down all the way down but then
9:52
the giraffe had an idea oh what a great
9:56

9:58
tall tall tall was so happy and the idea
10:02
was now the giraffe said I will go on a
10:05
plane that's how I'm gonna go on a trip
10:09
so the giraffe walked down to the place
10:13
where they sell tickets for planes and
10:15
then the person who is telling selling
10:18

10:23
you can't go on the plane and the
10:25
giraffe said oh show me your sad giraffe
10:28

10:33
jury
10:33
I was walking along so sad and then the
10:35
giraffe had an idea and the giraffe got
10:39
very tall and said oh I love this idea
10:43
this is the best idea ever
10:45
you want to know how the giraffe thought
10:48
to go on a trip how do you think do you
10:52
have an idea well you just might be
10:55
right because guess what it's a boat
10:57
so the giraffe walked down to the water
11:01
and with his tall neck giraffe walked
11:05
down to the water and walked all the way
11:07
to where somebody was selling tickets
11:09
and he said I would like to buy a ticket
11:12
and then the person who is selling
11:14
tickets said do you have any money and
11:16
the giraffe said yes right here in my
11:18
pocket
11:19
and so the giraffe gave the money and
11:21
the giraffe got the ticket they didn't
11:24
say no yay show me the happy giraffe
11:29
dance and then the giraffe walked up the
11:35
plank all the way the ramp and got onto
11:39
the boat and went for a lovely ride all
11:43
around the bay and that's when the
11:47
giraffe decided that it wanted to do
11:50
some yoga do you want to do some more
11:52
yoga okay
11:54
this is going to be giraffe draws shapes
11:57
it's a little yoga game you like to play
12:00

12:02
all right so we're going to stand like
12:05
this stand so tall straight I stand as
12:08
tall as a tree except to bow if I must
12:14
add giraffe I kiss my knees but I'm not
12:19
a sad giraffe anymore so straight I
12:22
stand as tall as a tree or as tall as a
12:25
mountain how high can you be huh now
12:30
that this is a game of drawing so we are
12:33
going to draw a square we're going to
12:36
draw a circle and we're going to draw a
12:39
triangle but not with a piece of paper
12:41
you mean we're going to draw with our
12:44
body
12:45

I think that your ass could do this too
13:18
what do you guys think perhaps if the
13:21
giraffe started to do this on the boat
13:24
you think the boat would start to tip
13:25

13:26
nah because it's a big ship all right
13:31
now you're going to draw with your leg
13:33
boy how do we do that you're gonna have
13:36
to balance on up can you balance okay if
13:39
you have to hold on to the wall that's
13:41

13:47
circle with your foot draw a circle with

good at that
14:19
all right are you ready to do some more
14:22
sit-down yoga because we are gonna go on
14:26
a boat to go find the giraffe - I think
14:30
the giraffe might have forgotten his
14:31
lunch so we have to go bring him his
14:34
lunch box did that ever happen to you
14:35
before where you forgot your lunch
14:37
I hate that when that happens ok but
14:41
first let's take a drink of water I want
14:44
to make sure that you guys a drink some
14:46
water - ok especially when it gets
14:51
really warm it's important to drink a
14:53
little bit of water all day long
14:55
giraffes know that - all right so let's
14:58
get in our boat everybody sit down
15:01
and we're going to row row row our boat
15:05
but this boat actually is going to
15:08
balance up so if you can balance up if
15:11
you're old enough to do that good for
15:13
you if you can't just keep your feet
15:15
down okay because either way for grown
15:18
ups and for kids still this is a really
15:21
good rowing exercise sorry all I could
15:24
get was a rowboat and we have to go
15:26
catch up with that big ship so you can
15:28

cut it oh so glad so glad that is a very
16:24
good giraffe to know how to catch the
16:27
lunch and because we all give the
16:30
giraffe something that means that
