Out of Africa

Thursday we ventured to Out of Africa. A really cool "safari" place that lets you get closer than you really want to these amazing animals. Seriously, we were taller than some of the fences and wondered how easy it would be for the animals to get out. It was alot of fun. The tiger splash show is really neat as well. The trainers play, swim, and show off tigers in a pool of water. There was one tiger that really like Kiera- before the show stared the kids were down by the fence and Kiera would take off running and the one tiger would chase after her- and this went on for several trips down and back on the sidewalk:) She thought it was tons of fun. We got to take a bus into the habitats and feed giraffes and camels through the open sides of the vehicle. We could have reached out and touched the zebra and ostrich; but were warned that zebra bite hard, and that ostriches like to steal things from people and swallow them whole!!
