African Lion Safari

Yesterday was a lot of fun. We went to the African Lion Safari. We started off by driving through forest and fields that were full of all sorts of animals! We saw Lions, Cheetah’s, Giraffe’s, Anelope and Monkey’s! We really tried to get the monkey’s to jump on the car but I don’t think they saw us through the tinted windows. Before we started going through, Mom and Dad moved my car seat to the trunk and let me stand up in the back seat to see the animals from both windows! Mom said that would never happen again anywhere else but there.

It rained for a little bit but that was ok because we just played in the splash pad area! I loved running in the knee deep water.

Inbetween animal shows I played in the ball pit and the playground.

We went on a train ride and saw deer, ducks and protected wildlife. See the Peacock behind us?!

The petting zoo was a lot of fun. I really wanted to touch the goats but they came up to me so fast and then I started to change my mind about touching them! It was funny.

My playhouse

My Daddy is really good at winning stuff! He was at a stag and doe a couple of weeks ago and bought tickets to win a playhouse just for me. Would you believe, much to the dismay of all of the other people who had tickets in the same bin, that he won?! It is the best playhouse ever. Daddy spent 6 hours putting it together. (It is real wood and ‘putting it together’ basically meant building it) It is right in the corner of our backyard, ready to play with every day. I am so lucky and apparently so is my Daddy!
