Safari

In Port Clinton, there's an African Safari experience that will make you laugh your socks off. It's frightening, gross, and hilarious all at the same time. We were so glad Papa had rented a mini van, because we sure didn't want our cars get slimed up by all the animals.
We bought a 10 pound bag of carrots at Costco so that we could feed the critters from the safety of our car. We didn't anticipate just how assertive they would be!

We saw llamas, alpacas, deer, bison, zebras, you name it. All were hungry...
We couldn't stop laughing (and screaming). It was so crazy to have these huge animals sticking their heads in our car.

The people in front of us fully leaned out their truck to give the deer a sample. It was quite a show to see how daring they were.

In a weird way, I though this guy was kinda cute.

Can you see the goo left behind from the feeding? Don't worry, we went through a $3 car wash after our trip.

Have you ever seen an albino zebra? We have.

After our drive through the park, we decided to become members so that we would keep coming back. There's a smaller sort of zoo and play area too. We missed the free pony rides, but we'll be back with Aunt Sheila soon.

I think we wore them out!

We watched a tortoise battle. One guy tipped another over onto his back. Watch as he worked to turn him back over:

Peacocks and hens roamed all over the grounds. We could get quite close to them. Isn't he lovely?

Back home, our pampered little pup humbly waits to have plastic baggies strapped to her feet. She doesn't like it, but it keeps the mud off her paws. We can't wait to get grass in our yard!
