Last Friday - part one

Last Friday was the last full day that my brother-in-law and his family were here. We'd had rainy weather for a few days and although the forecast was for more rain we decided to get out of the house and do something. Lucky for us the weather stayed good. Our first stop (other than lunch) was to a drive through animal safari. The kids had a blast and weren't too scared that some of the animals came up close and personal. The zebras practically had their whole heads in the car window trying to get our animal food. We all fed at least one animal out of our hands.




The only animal that we didn't care for feeding was the ostrich. Those things can be mean (or so we think). For the most part they didn't come up to the car. Only one did and we rolled up our windows as he pecked on our windshield.



At the end of our drive there was a little petting zoo. For some reason it only had goats in it but it didn't matter. They had brushes available so you could brush them. They had so much food in there that they didn't care for the leftover food pellets from our drive but they did want to eat the paper bag that the food was in and the edges of your shirt or pants so we had to watch out. Baby goats are really cute.




*More of our day to come in a 2nd post.
