Wild Things
Sorry for not posting for a while, I haven’t taken many pictures and we have been busy with family activities (which I don’t have pictures from). I still don’t have any new pictures, but I realized I hadn’t posted any pictures from our trip to the Wild Things Park in Salinas back in October. It is a little animal park, mostly with animals used in movies, used for drawing cartoons, and donated or rescued pets. (Pets such as lions, tigers, and alligators!) They take you on a tour and you get to be very close to all the animals, so it is a different experience than the zoo. We all loved it, and were pleasantly surprised. (I mean, come on, something cool in Salinas?!) Here are a few pictures from our trip.
Elijah and Nick looking at Jacob the Lion:
A beautiful Tiger that we got to watch from only 5 feet away!
Elijah was captivated:
We did the extra part of feeding the Elephants:
Although I ended up doing it all because Elijah would only get within a foot of the trunk:
Lest you think otherwise, Elena was there too, enjoying the whole thing from her stroller (She gets bothered if she is too close to the animals, but from a safe distance loves it!):
A cool shot of Elijah, on the plains of Africa (ignore the fence)…

That last one IS a VERY cool picture!
Glad you guys liked the park.
Nick might not like that I posted it, because he was in the middle of editing it.
But, I like it how it is right now, and wanted to post it. So if he comes up with a different one that he likes better I will just post that one too!
its okay to post without pictures, you know
This park looks like it was a lot of fun and I like the last one too! You should frame it!
Looks cool! I know my kids would love it! Maybe Allen and I can take them there until my dream of going back to Kenya comes true!
