A wild day at the park

Over vacation, we decided we would try out the Wild Animal Park since our Zoo passes included these. This was the first major event on our vacation. We went with our dear friends the Carey's and had a really good time. The park wasn't huge but really well laid out and the safari ride was really cool. It was beautiful weather and Peter and Tanner just loved hanging out together. I realized that in all our family pictures I kinda hide behind Tanner. Guess Jay will have to hold Tanner from now on.
Here's Tanner and Peter at a little play ground in the park.
Having a bite to eat.
Gorillas up close and personal. I would say Tanner just started being into animals but still her attention span wasn't long. It was kinda like, "okay I see them now lets move on". She is a mover, always in motion.
Peter and Tanner were fine in the stroller until the first time we got them out to see the animals and then they DID NOT want to go back in. This was often the way of transporting them that they would settle on. They either wanted to walk or sit on shoulders. No strollers for them.
Tram ride for the safari. The animals were really awake and about on the ride and I thought you could see them better then on the safari ride at DisneyWorld.
Rhinos and Gizelles. There were all kinds gizelles and antelope at this park.
Giraffes. Lots and lots of giraffes. This park often was very proud of all their breeding capabilities and had lots of baby animals. We even saw that breeding in action with the Zebras, on the safari. Oh never a dull moment and lots of fun memories.
