big trip

yesterday we went to a place called out of africa. it's really fun. it was my little sisters birthday on friday so we decided to go there for her birthday. she had a great time, as did we and her little friend and our cousin niko. when we first got there, we went to get our tickets and then we went to see the bird exhibit. while we were waiting for the serengeti bus to take us on the serengeti safari, we were mocking the parrots, (as they were us). it was really funny. koryne was whistling at the parrots and then it did the same exact whistle back. so finally the bus got there and we entered the gates at the serengeti. firt we looked at the white tailed deer, and then the camel. before we had gotten on the bus they gave us some carrots to feed the giraffe. i actually kissed it! it was pretty funny and i got it all on tape. after the giraffe we saw these antelope things and we didn't dare pet them because they had horns that were almost 3 feet long. it was crazy! we also got to see zebras. even though they are from the horse family, we didn't dare touch them because the tour guide said that they could bite straight through your arm, if you scared or startled them. so that was the end of the serengeti safari. after that we looked at the birds again, then took a tram to the top of the hill. on the way up there, we saw boomboom a rhino, and all of the animals in between like the white tigers and bengal tigers, lions and lionesses, and the white wolves. we also black bears and cougars. when the tram stopped we saw a giant snake and we got to pet it. it was a species of a kind of python it was really awesome. then after that we decided to go to lunch,because we were getting hungry. my throat was starting to hurt so i only ate soft things. when we went back we were just in time for the tiger splash show. so we decided to go to that. when we got there. these trainers came out with these giant cat toys for the bengals and started waving it very quickly in front of there faces. they got them into the water by jumping very highly into a 4 and a half foot deep pool. it was really cool. i got a video of that too. after a while we decided to make our seperate ways and leave. we left with nana and went to page to spend for awhile. when we got home we had dinner at the chinese place and then we went home and went to bed. it was a really great day. i have to go soon because we are going to church and i have to get ready so.... ill write later, and post some pics of this awesome trip.!!!!!!!!>>>>>>>>Luv K
