I remember going to the Bronx Zoo when I was about 3. My mother took me to see the elephants and they made such an impression on me as being HUGE. I had the impression they were as big as the Goodyear Blimp! Of course, in future years when I would see elephants, I always thought they looked so SMALL because I would compare them to this first memory. EVERYTHING looks so huge to you when you are a child. It leaves a false perception of scale. Ever go back to your childhood home and think how SMALL it is?
