Lions and Tigers and Bears, oh my!


Okay, so we didn't actually see any lions, tigers, or bears, but we did visit an African Wildlife Safari (done in true Texas style!) here a few days ago. You get a bag of food as you enter, and you can drive through the preserve and feed the animals from your car. We got to see and feed zebras, bison, ostriches, gazelle, wildebeests, springbok, kudu, bongo, watusi, and all sorts of other animals I'd never even heard of. We also got to see giraffes, a rhinoceros, and camels, but didn't get to feed them. Ethan had an absolute blast! He got to "help" Daddy drive through the preserve (meaning he completely took over), and climb back and forth between my seat and Chris', depending on which side of the car the animals came to.




At this point in the safari drive, Ethan had decided he was a proficient driver and told Daddy "Hands off, I drive by myself." He was pretty insistent too...until we almost drove into a tree
This American Bison decided he was hungry...but not for the food we had for him.
