Day 2- AFRICAN SAFARI in Texas

In the morning on the second day, we went to Natural Bridges Wildlife Safari. It was a lot of fun and we were surprised how FRIENDLY the animals were. They would come right up to you and for the most part they stood along the roads and followed you (we were handing out food, of course). Here are Ellie and Erin right before one of the animals stuck its whole head in our window and Ellie leaped to the back seat with amazing speed... it was pretty funny. A lot of people hold the food out in their hands and let the animals eat from their hands, but we were real wimps and just threw it on the ground.
Cute little animals out Daniel's window.
Owen hanging out and being good... for the time being. During the second go around he fell asleep... he needed it.

Here was the car in front of us, this shows you just how the animals are all around you.Here is Ellie checking out the ostriches. These guys were pretty funny. One in particular was a little aggressive with following us. We stopped for a second to rearrange Ellie and the next thing I knew there was an ostrich right in Daniel's window! Daniel was so funny and freaked out and sped off. Like I said, we were kind of chickens about the animals getting too close.

Here is Owen in the petting zoo. I am kind of anti-petting zoo but Owen needed to get out of the car and he pet this one goat and then we washed him up and left. We enjoyed the safari though. It was good fun!
