A Ride On The Wild Side


Last weekend, we went to the Safari Park in Lexington, Virginia.  For those of y'all who have never been, you drive your car through about three miles of park and feed all sorts of animals along the way.

Kate is obsessed with animals (of the plastic and stuffed variety), so we thought she would love seeing the real thing at the Safari Park.  Let's just say, it was a huge hit!!

While I was a tiny bit scared of the animals throwing their heads in the car to eat, Robby and Kate LOVED it!!

We will definitely be going back there again soon!!

Apparently, llamas really like grain!

She was loving it!!

Kate feeding a llama!

I fed a camel...it stole my food bucket, and I promptly closed my window.
He was NOT the smallest thing I have ever seen!!

The most exciting part of our venture...this watusi was hungry...YIKES!

Neither we, nor our car, was able to escape him!
Luckily, no one  (including the car) was injured in the making of this photo!

Kate thought it was hilarious!

Even the ostriches came right up to the car!  They are huge!

We ran out of grain, but this hopeful llama would not give up!

A rare moment when Caroline was awake....she slept almost the entire trip!

After the park, we went to the petting zoo to see the baby animals!

That was awesome!  We will be back!
